last trimester PUPPP disease

HoogzwangerrrGuest ·
Hey hey, I was wondering if there are any ladies here who also got PUPPP in the last trimester? This is a pregnancy condition that only occurs in 1 out of 250 to 300 people, and yes, I'm the lucky one! Pfffff, I wouldn't wish this on anyone! It's a terrible, hellish itch all over my belly, 24/7! And at night it's 10 times worse! Do I have any fellow sufferers? And what do you do that helps? I've now been given a triamcinolone cream, but it's not really helping yet :-(

    Aaa, that's so annoying! I relate to this and I'm also one of the lucky ones. I slather myself with eczema cream, menthol powder, and oil. Cold showers also help a bit. I got a pill for allergic skin reactions, which makes me feel really drowsy too. Still, the itching persists, and I have to just push through it???? It's driving me crazy. I'm 39+2 now, so hopefully, I'll give birth soon and then be itch-free.
