So sorry jessandalfie don't have any advice but hang in there! It WILL be over and you will get a beautiful baby at the end, and despite everything it will be worth it Smile Bug your doctor for help, do whatever it is that makes you feel a tiny bit better and make sure you're getting help and sympathy from partner/parents/everyone

(hugs)

Ask the dr for omeprazole! It's amazing take one a day and you'll forget what heartburn is lol.
As for the eczema I have no suggestions.
But hang in there. I'm 34 weeks and had enough since week 20! Just keep telling yourself it'll be worth it
Your son se so sweet bless him x
