I posted a little while ago about itchiness in third trimester of pregnancy...learnt a lot as a result, but thought it was getting better: sorry to have to ask again, but....
Now nearly 34 weeks, and am reasonably ok during the day but late afternoon/early evening I start getting really itchy: bump, boobs, elbows, tops of thighs, face a little, and now back. Bum too, but then I have serious piles so suspect they play major part there . Sometimes soles of feet when I'm hot, in bed. It eases off around 3am - by which time I'm exhausted
Have tried all sorts of creams, Calendula, Canesten (in case it was thrushy - in relevent places), Piriton (does help, but don't want to keep taking it), cold showers (helps while under them). Eating sugary stuff does make it worse - esp chocolate, sadly.
I don't have a rash, or welts when I scratch - I have a history of urticaria, so know what that looks like. Is PUPPS possible without any welts? Is OC possible without itchy hands, and only in evenings/night?
Anyone have any thoughts, or best of all, tips? I am seeing OB next Tuesday, don't know whether to contact her before then or if I'm overreacting to a slightly-worse-than-normal pg itch. Its driving me nuts though, and is really tiring/depressing.
