Crazy allergy never had before!! Wtf?

[Sezo]

So I just moved from the city to the country a month ago and I'm 18 weeks and I've had some normal allergies since I was little but anyway out here where we moved to the water is high in salt and minerals running off a well and since I've been pregnant I have sensitive skin to everything , now we don't drink the water we have a filter under our kitchen sink that makes it taste like bottled water(even better then city water) but we do run the washer with the icky water and shower in it, and its clean just not safe to drink but safe to shower in nd I've noticed my head and my legs and arms are dry and now I'm developing rashes from showering in this water!! I mean in my scalp and legs and neck and other unmentionable places and I'm going to talk to my doctor right away tomorrow but this is just insane and its an allergic reaction of some sort!! Anyone else had weird crazy things happen to them such as allergys or irritations or skin issues during your pregnancy?  I feel crazy but damn I itch all the time and nothing helps.

That's what I was going to suggest. Your skin probably just has to get use to tge new water and i'm sure that after you have your baby you won't have anything to worry about. I love well water. Everywhere that i've had a well the only bad thing was when it rained a lot thw watee would be muddy for a couple of days.

My family doesn't have any problems with the water but it seems to affect me.

Well I'm from wilderville and the water in this area isn't okay to drink anyway everyone uses filtered it has the rotten egg smell to it and isn't approved by law to drink and the salt and iron isn't giving a dry skin thing its blotchy rash type and I found out its due to sensitive skin, water change, allergy, hormones & the baby taking my nutrients!!

Umm....if u are on well water how is it high in salt???! Well water is like spring water..it comes directly from the ground...u just have to let it run a few minutes. It is possible you have hard water with it being well water but well water is actually better for you than nasty city water which contains traces of viagra birth control blood pressure meds and narcotics. If you are breaking out u might need to have water lines checked and the water itself tested but normally well water is healthier than city water. Also try using a moisturizer because dry skin can be caused by pregnancy itself as can itchy skin (all over not just in certain areas) sounds to me like its pregnancy related and has nothing to do with the water though. Ive lived in houses with wells for years (i grew up in the country) but ive. Also lived in the city...and unless theres some kind of parasite getting into your well or water lines well water wouldnt cause this kind of stuff

You could get a filter for your shower head, that might help :-)
