HELP!! RASH??

Hey im 17 weeks, and for the last month or two ive had a pimple like rash all over my chest, neck and back! At first I thought it was just achne but this is getting ridiculous! Its not itchy; but it wont go away! They are everywhere! Pinky bumps just keep popping up everywhere, some have pus heads, some have yellow gunk, some are like blackheads, some are pimples, but most are just lumps! Is this a normal thing and can it be treated?? It looks disgusting! And its summer here in Australia so its waay to HOT to cover up! HELP??!

I'm 23+5 and I've had the same thing since 18 weeks and it kept getting worse then really itchy, I'm also in Australia (melbs) and finally after creams doc visits etc it seems I have become allergic to chocolate. There also testing my liver as apparently even though I've developed the allergy they said part of the rash can be a liver infection common in pregnancy and I'll find out the results Mon. Hopefully u find some relief maybe ask your doc to prescribe an antifungal cream and keep and eye out if it flares up more after eating or drinking something :)
