Has anyone experienced round white cirles appearing on their skin whilst pregnant. All the books tell you you may get dark patches, but never white. I did not get them with my first child, only during the second pregnancy. I saw the doctor and he thought it was maybe a thyroid problem, but the blood test said that was fine. Now a year after my daughter was born I have lots of them, on my under arm, wrist and from the wrist to elbow. I am starting to look like a friesian cow. I am being referred to a dermatologist, but in the meanwhile I would be interested to hear if this has happened to anyone else?
