this happening to anyone else ?

I'm 32 weeks and have noticed the skin on my legs, feet, and hands get red, blotchy, itchy,and hot.  my dr told me he has no idea what it is and swears it has nothing to do with my pregnancy but wont do any tests. I stopped using my bodwashes switch to organic moisturizers for sensative skin and have tried benadryl so I know I haven't developed any allergies ....

lol it does drive me nuts but its to late for me to switch.  he was amazing at the beginning of my pregnancy but not anymore he doesn't pay attention to my labs or even my weight gain. I do it all myself and ask tons of questions when I think there's an issue. I have looked up pupps it's not that I don't get any bumps that turn or anything. what I'm going through happens periodically everyday doesn't last and doesn't leave hives or bumps

Ugh that would drive me crazy my doc is the opposite cause she's so over cautious were always testing for everything looking twice and getting second opinions from high risk doctors. It could be bc my step mom is a doctor there so she wants to take good care of me but it makes me think too much sometimes. Lol

Have you looked up PuPPPS? That's what I have. Your Dr should seriously figure it out... If he has no idea then how would he know if it's pregnancy related or not.

I read about that and ill have to bring it up to the dr again this week.  I know its not hives it comes and goes will last an hour or so and then will just go away. I dislike my dr very much he isn't really attentive when it comes to my case passes everything off as me being a ftm and over thinking

Google cholestasis  my friend got that during her pregnancy I'm not sure if it's relative to your condition but maybe. She had to be induced early because of it though cause it could affect her baby. If it was that your doctor would have probably known though. Just a suggestion
