Tiny red lines all over stomach?

Stormy101

I tried googling but if I see one more picture of some crusty skin nastiness, I'm going to hurl. On that note, I figure I'd ask you ladies. The past two days it looks like my stomach is covered in tiny raised red lines, from my ribs to my hips. I'm not sure if this is pg-related, winter-related or both. My skin is still soft, though. They literally looks like miniature stretch marks.

Anyone else have this? I'll call the derm if it doesn't go away, but usually their appointments are so far out that my issue disappears by the time my appointment rolls around (like 3-4 weeks).

shut up! i've started noticing these too. although mine are not raised... they're just there. and there's only a few of them. Sorry to say for us but I think, they're the beginning of *dun dun dun* stretch marks. EEP! I am not a dermatologist and I don't really know, but that's my guess.

My friend had something similar happen. Her doc said it was an allergic reaction to the lotion she was putting on.

This happened to me yesterday.

Interesting! I do use a bunch of different lotions/oils, maybe I should stick to one for sensitive skin.

Re: stretch marks - I really really hope this isn't it! If I'm only 13wks now, I'm in trouble! lol

my sister joked they were fat lines, :ie: lines you get from sitting down and having your fat roll over your other fat.  thanks sis.
