SOOOOO.....itchy! All over!

So tonight as I was relaxing, my jawline started itching, then a few moments later my neck was itching, then my ears, then my chest, then my whole face, then my whole back, now my legs and bottom of my feet and arms. What the heck?! My neck has a light red rash with tiny little bumps but everything is so itchy and red driving me nuts. I didn't eat anything out of the ordinary today, didn't use different soaps, toiletries, nothing. Calling my ob tomorrow as I'm sure it's pregnancy related (I'm not prone to sensitive skin or rashes otherwise). Anybody else?!

    Maybe you had an allergic reaction to something?  It is possible to develop allergies during pregnancy to stuff you weren't allergic to prior to pregnancy.

    Were you outdoors at all? I just got into some poison oak recently. Itches like crazy.

    No! That's what's crazy. Literally, the only thing I did any different than I have since finding out I'm pregnant is I ate strawberries for breakfast yesterday. I will be so so sad if I am all of a sudden pregnancy allergic to strawberries :-(

    I have always had sensitive skin and it has definitely been more sensitive since getting KU. I can pretty much only wear cotton these days or else I'm really uncomfortable. No rashes but I do get itchy, especially after a warm/hot shower. Lately I've been using this medicated Gold Bond skin lotion after the shower which helps soothe immediately but I also love Aveeno lotions. Definitely do call your doctor but in the meantime - lotion!!
