rash on belly

I just started getting a rash with red bumpy dots on my belly. Is anyone else experiencing this and what are you doing to relieve the itch? Did your doctor recommend anything for it?

    did you already try benadryl cream?  a rash can be indicative of a more serious problem.  if the benadryl doesn't work i would suggest calling your provider.

    PUPPS perhaps? Call your OB/midwife and see what they recommend, they will probably want to see it.

    sounds like it could be PUPPPS. I had it. It sucks. I really hope for your sake its not.. but here is my experience with it:

    My doctor said it wasnt PUPPPS. I got a second opinion and he said it was. In the end, it most definetly was puppps.

    I took Benadryl for the itch and i loaded the calamine lotion on my tummy. DO NOT ITCH! It makes any stretchmarks that you may have - worse!

    FYI - I ended up having a boy - 70% of ppl with PUPPPS end up having boys!
