Refined Coconut oil and vitamin E oil works miracles guys. Coconut because its antibiotic and penetrates deep and the E because it restores and heals skin cells. I've used both throughout my pregnancy and I don't have one stretch mark... Yet at 31 weeks

It sounds like it could be PUPPPS. It's a rash that some pregnant women get usually in there third trimester. I got it at about 37 weeks and the itch is horrible. My doctor said cortizone cream will help with itching but it most likely won't go away until after giving birth :(

@weldermom yes its on my neck and back of my ears as well. Its extremely frustrating bcuz yes it itches and I can't keep scratching cuz of the scabbing and marks its making. My stomach and back r the worse tho.
