Is it really bad? I'd get myself off to the GP because there are some things that can help... And it probably won't go away till the baby is born... My gp thought I had it but mine was just eczema and went away with a bit of hydrocortisone Grin

I get a rash from some antenatal vitamins, could it be that?

Oh I had that. It didn't go away until after DS1 was born, though thankfully it didn't happen again when I was expecting DS2.

I used Lush Strawberry Feels Forever massage bar on it, lots of cocoa butter in it, was soothing. Was the middle of a heat wave when I had DS1 and the heat made it itch more, I spent most of the last few weeks under a cold shower!
