Hey,

I have broken out in some weird kind of rash....ON MY FACE!!! Aaarrghh!!

Basically, I woke up in the wee hours of Tuesday morning with the right side of my face incredibly itchy. It was actually interrupting my sleep. When I eventually got up yesterday morning, I noticed I had a reddish kind of patch on my face (not really noticeable...more looks like I'm flushed on one cheek), however from my ear, across my cheek and down to my jawline and top of my neck is itchy, tingly and hot. I was starting to get a bit freaked and went to the Doc who couldn't identify a cause and sent me packing with Derm-Aid. That did NOTHING. Anyway, today I wake up and I'm starting to itch on the left side of my face as well. So I go back to the Doctor today (saw a different one) who said that it is most likely a pregnancy rash and unfortunately there isn't much that can be done to treat it. She gave me some stronger cream to put on it and told me to use cold compresses, but unfortunately it's most likely something I'm just stuck with and that I should tell the OB when I see him on Friday as he will have more experience with this kind of thing and may be able to suggest some other form of treatment.

OMG you have NOOOOO idea how annoying this is!! I can't have ANYTHING touching my face...not even my hair, as it just makes it worse, and even curled up in bed, if the bedsheets get on my face, the same deal.

Has anyone else had a similar experience, or god forbid is having one now? LOL
