Hand foot& mouth and 38 weeks pregnant

I'm really after some advice with what I can do please...
I am just 38 weeks pregnant and a few days ago was extreeeely tired, achey and had a sore throat. Didn't think much of it and put it down to being heavily pregnant. Yesterday I noticed very itchy bumps on my hands and that my feet were side and I remembered when I'd had hand foot and mouth 18months ago along with my then 7 month old DD. Went to dr yesterday afternoon who confirmed yes HFM but nothing I can do (my daughter is fine this time around but I don't understand why I've got it again!).
Anyway, I'm reeeeally struggling and don't know what to take/do. The itching on my feet and hands is constant and I can't sleep (have been up all night sat on the sofa putting creams etc on with nothing working) and I've taken paracetamol for the aches and pains and sore throat but I just feel terrible. Are there any other creams or anything that anyone has used? I will try anything!
Thank you x
