  I've posted it before but when I had it last pregnancy, dandelion root capsules were the only thing that brought any relief. It is so miserable I'm sorry you're going through it

  I had it with my last pregnancy and post partum. it was literally the worst thing that has ever happened to me. I'm sorry you're experiencing this mama. I used the dandelion root and grandpa's pine tar soap.  I also iced everything.  I still scratched until I broke skin and bled.  it lasted until I was 4 weeks post partum.

  Omg nooooo! I was hoping it would go away quickly after birth. 4 weeks is just so long to have already been dealing with it. I've scratched so much my skin hurts. I've tried V8 and I just got the pine tar soap today. I'm just so ready to have this baby. I'm feeling extremely depressed

  @Valorie&Baby it's hard I know. I was very depressed too because of pupps. It doesnt stick around post partum for everyone. In some cases Doc will even induce to help women suffering from it. You can do it though.  curious, are you having a little boy? Pupps are more common with women pregnant with boys

  In my personal experience giving birth made mine go away. I hope you find something that works for you. PUPPPS was seriously the most excruciating thing I've ever gone through. I feel so badly for you and I really hope it goes away asap.

  Showering in the coldest water I could handle helped a little.. or atleast didn't make it worse
