Pregnancy related rash or something else?
Can any1 tell me if they think this is pregnancy related? I have a rash in the bend of my arm. One arm is much worse then the other but now the other arm is starting to get it too. I am not sure if its just from sweating, or the heat, or even anxiety and nerves. It actually comes and goes! Should I call the dr? I have an appt. next week wasn't sure if I should wait it out since its not consistent. When it is is there it is so itchy!! Image Attachment(s):

I would call the dr. I know that there is a kinda rash that is pregnancy related, a friend of mine had it. And try some cordisone cream when it's there, it might help with the itchyness.

Def call the doctor! My friend had a rash and it ended up being something and they scheduled an induction. Better safe than sorry.
I forgot what it was that she had???
Edit. It could be pupps or cholestasis. (Sp?)

Re: Pregnancy related rash or something else?
I would call the Dr. It kinda looks likes eczema, which I believe can be brought out by pregnancy and would show up in a place like that where skin might rub together or be easily irritated. Either way, call bc they can tell you something safe to put on it.
I randomly get patches of eczema on my ring finger or between my fingers and it's SO itchy, and almost burns when you scratch it too much. Last pregnancy I also got random patches of it on my ankle.

Just had to share that I used to get that on my ring finger too and then I started noticing that it would go away after I had my rings cleaned. Turns out b/c of the way my rings are, the inside of them would hold onto soap and that is what was causing it. Now I clean my rings at home once a week and also take them off after I wash my hands to let the water clean the inside of them and now I don't have any issues. Just thought I would share in the off chance that might be whats happening to you as well.

Thanks! I think that the rings definitely contribute to it! But I notice it's also seasonal for me... Basically EVERYTIME the weather changes, it happens. I try to stay on top of cleaning my rings, and always dry my finger under them bc I will def get the rash if the wetness stays under my rings.
