BTDT Moms-PUPPS during pregnancy? or just swollen, itchy skin
Did anyone develop this during their pregnancy? I was reading up on it online and saw pics and though the symptoms are roughly the same, my rash doesn't look like the ones in the example pics
My wrists and feet/ankles are SO swollen, red, with raised white hives. It hurts to even walk when my foot bends at the ankle. My stomach is itchy too but i dont have hives or anything on it.
What could this be? i cant stop scratching and they are getting worse but everything online says you cant do much for it.

When I had PUPPPS with DS I only experienced the rash, redness and itchiness in my stretch marks.

I had PUPPS but I would call you Dr. It sounds like you could have cholestasis...

i had Cholestasis , which is worse than pupps. the symptoms you are describing is pretty much what i had.
i would have the OB check for it, it is very important!!

I would see your OB or a dermatologist as soon as you can. I got shingles during my pregnancy with DS and it was horrible.
