I'm rather concerned. I'm 10ish weeks

Last Sunday I started with a small itchy rash on my chest.

By Tuesday it had become much bigger and was sore/angry/itchy/scaly. Went to Doctor and got some cream.

Saturday I developed lots of tiny itchy spots on my arms. Went to emergency dr amd got antibiotics and steroid type pills.

Woken up today. Chest is calmer, arms are spottier but not itching. However my face is all swollen and puffy!

What could this be? What should I do?

Worried that the little one is being harmed :(

I don't know, but can you think of anything that could be causing it? Try looking up common allergens maybe?

Either way go back to GP ASAP and ask for help or to be referred to a specialist.

I had this and went to the doctors who just prescribed piraton which seemed to sort it, he said it's quite common in early pregnancy with all the new hormones! I knows it's really itchy and awful but it should calm down it happened twice to me lasting a day each. A cool bath with an earl grey tea bag helped (i googled this lol!)
