Hello Ladies

Had my appointment (Im 27 weeks) yesterday, turns out I have PUPPS.. Has anyone ever had this before. I was prescribed benedryl and a pill. But Im not too crazy about meds especially when it "might" make me drowsy.

Has anyone used anything more natural like oatmeal baths or something else and it has helped them.. Its not as raw as it was yesterday. But Im still very itchy and would like a better remedy then benedryl.

Haven't had personal experience with this but wanted to give your post a friendly bump back to the top of the forum.

I don't have any experience of PUPPS, but I do suffer from Eczema regularly.  I'm currently experiencing a flare-up and I'm unable to use my prescribed meds for that as I'm going for a blood pregnancy test today.

What works for my itching is a lotion/cream containing tea tree oil.  This even helps soothe my itching when the steroidal creams haven't helped.  

Good luck with that, hope you see some improvement soon! :)

Thank you Joy!- I didnt even realize until now, I put this title up. I must have been half asleep at my desk. I wanted to have a totally different title! lol. Maybe I will repost with a new one.

May- Thanks for the advice! I need something to soothe this ASAP. Im going to try your method and let you know how it goes.
