Little bumps... bug bites?
Last night I noticed these little bumps on my wrist and hand, and this morning they seem to be on my other wrist/hand. They're itchy... but they don't look like mosquito bites and they're not red like poison ivy. I've never seen these before... Does anyone know what they are?
I checked web md but didn't come across anything...

Did you go in the water?
My kids get contact dermatitis from the water. Takes a few days to clear up.

Mayeb your skin had a reaction when it brushed up against something this weekend.
If it itches, rub some calamine lotion over it, so it doesn't spread.

Re: Little bumps... bug bites?
nope... no water... Haven't even been outside all that much...
I'm staying at DH's mom's for the first time though... and it started soon after we got here... I'm starting to wonder if I'm allergic to a soap that she uses or something...

Re: Little bumps... bug bites?
Where are you staying?
Could they be chigger bites? If so, putting some clear nail polish over the bites will stop it...

It could be whatever laundry detergent she uses. What about bed bugs? There seem to be a lot of reports of those this year but I think they are red.

Yes! They look like little pimples!
But I swear they're spreading!
Like randomly though... There's a few on the top of my hand... a few on my wrist... a few on my forearm, and then a few on my upper arm.

Sadly, my camera is in Virginia.
And you can't really see the bumps unless you look closely... I don't know if they'd even show up on a picture.
Gah!
Maybe I'm allergic to my MIL
