Red Itchy Bumps on Stomach
Did anyone get red itchy bumps on their stomach? This is my first pregnancy and I am 31 weeks along. It's not because of dry skin because I've been using mustella in the AM's and Bio Oil in the PM for months now. It started above my belly button on Sunday and noticed it now on one side of my stomach and under my boobs yesterday. TIA!

Red Itchy Bumps on Stomach
It almost sounds like a heat rash.... I get it under my boobs all the time (pre pregnancy too). But if it worries you, I'd have your doctor check it out.

Re: Red Itchy Bumps on Stomach
I would def go to the doc to check it out, so they can rule out Puppps or Cholestasis.
I broke out in itchy hives at around 23 weeks on my stomach, chest and thighs, and after they ran the bloodwork and sent me to an allergist to rule out anything major, turns out it's just a heat rash and my skin was getting really sensitive due to the hormones and weather. I've been dealing with it for about a month now and with the cooler temps, it's finally been subsiding.
I was also told that a little itchiness around the areas where your skin stretches is normal but definitely go your OB and get it checked out, just in case!

Re: Red Itchy Bumps on Stomach
It could be a million different things. It depends on what the bumps look like. I had itchy bumps in my last trimester. They were very very small little red dots. I only had them in a small area on the top of my stomach. Turned out to be prickly heat and I put corn starch on it. Anything like an ointment or cream would make it worse. It was gone in under a week.
Hopefully it's nothing serious

Re: Red Itchy Bumps on Stomach
Called the Dr and she said she wanted to see me ... when I got there and lifted my shirt she said it's PUPPPs and it's all hormonal. Nothing I can really do about it unless it gets bad ... which it hasn't and I hope it stays that way. Guess I'm the lucky 1:150 that gets it. Yay me lol
