The same thing happened to me last week. This is me first pregnancy and i am 7 weeks.....I was breaking out for 2 days and hoping the hives would go away. But then my throat started closing.  I had to go to the ER get a shot of prednisone and supplemental oxygen.
Call your doctor and if it is severe go to the hospital.

I go that same horrible itchy feeling at one point during my pregnancy. Dos and everyone else said stretch marks, BS! I had an allergic reaction to something. At first I thought it was prenatal vitamins, but it wasn't. I was miserable and had to take lukewarm showers. Sucked. thank god it only lasted 2 days. But I was so afraid it would come back that I was scared for weeks. But it didn't so that's why I think it was a hormonal change or some allergic reaction.

Your skin is being stretched out its normal to be itchy, its the most irritating to me! make sure youre moisturizing! And whatever you do DONT ITCH! thats a sure way to get stetch marks! Resist the urge to scratch, try softly rubbing, like smoothing your hands over your skin...but oils and moisturizing is the key!

I got an allergic reaction to my hormones at 38 weeks with my now 6 year old son. I was itchy and red all over my body. The only way to get better for me was by getting induced and giving birth. But you're still to early!
