I delivered 2 weeks ago and started developing the itchiness and lumps a week ago. The nurse Practitioner said my case is even more rare considering I'm no longer pregnant. She said it has to do a lot with hormones. I was given a prescription for a topical steroid creme and she told me to take Claritin twice daily and if it doesn't help I have a prescription for oral steroid ready if I need it but I can't breastfeed if I take it. She also said stay cool and do cool compresses. I found that hot showers really irritated it and apparently drinking milk did also.

Yikes!! I hope you don't have it!! Keep us updated!

It's a horrific pregnancy rash that itches like the devil and there is no cure for it until you give birth. It effects 1% of pregnant women @jahniesha, @cupcakekiki

I have PUPPS and I pray you don't have it!!!

Following cuz I don't know what it is either

ftm what's pupps??

Oh no! I hope you don't have PUPPS! I thought I had it a week ago and midwives thought it might be shingles actually. Whatever it is, it's fading out a bit now.
