Chafing relief!

Anyone else having horrible chafing problems? I'm 18 weeks and I sweat for no reason down in that area and the inside of my legs are chafing. Any ideas for getting rid of it?

I wasn't sure if there was certain kinds you couldn't use being pregnant. If I would stop sweating for no reason it would clear up. I've never had it this bad!

I expierenced it and started to use monistat soothing care chafing relief powder-gel. I love it. It doesn't feel gooey. After you apply it, it feels like powder nice and silky. And you can also double up and use it as a facial primer. I know I know sounds crazy but it's comparable to Mac smash box and cliniques primers. It has the same ingredients and is a great barrier after moisturizer before foundation. Do some research I love it.
