Mommies that had a rash on their bellys while pregnant
What was the outcome?
I know some women get PUPPS - but can it be anything else?
Plus, what can I do for this rash? I can't take it anymore

I didn't have pupps but I had a rash and I washed with Cetaphil soap and put cetaphil cream on my body and it cleared up. I had tried other things but nothing helped except the cetaphil

Re: Mommies that had a rash on their bellys while pregnant
I had PUPPS.... and my itching was INSANE...
SARNA lotion is what works best.... its OTC and can be found at pretty much any drug store......

At this point.... even if it is PUPPS... you are ready to go anyday now (you are past due-right?) so no treatment will even have enough time to work....
Ice packs on your belly, can help.... aveeno baths (just not to many- because that can cause a yeast infection) Pine tar soap (it looks gross... but does help) which can be found at an actual drug store( not long eckerd or cvs....) It is safe to take benadryl (but it never worked for me.... however I had a REALLY BAD case...)
The Sarna lotion worked the best.... it would soothe it for a little bit (I cant begin to tell you how many bottles I went through) Make sure you get the one with the fragracne- for some reason it works better than the fragrance free....
This is what it looks like... I usually found it by cortizone cream, and sometimes by the gold bond creams (like foot creams...)Image Attachment(s):

Thank you sooo much - it will be so much easier finding it in the store, as soon as DH comes home, we are going to get it - I have try all different stuff nothing is working. I have been walking around the house in a sports bra, with and ice cold washcloth on my belly!

Re: Mommies that had a rash on their bellys while pregnant
I was itchy, but it wasn't PUPPS, it was cholestasis. NOTHING helped. For PUPPS though, I've heard nothing but great things about Sarna. Lucky for you, you're almost done!!!
