kinda personal

Ever since I got pregnant, my boobs have been really itchy and I keep getting this nasty rash, my doctor said its not yeast or anything. So idk what its from, but its not attractive. I've tried like cortizone cream an stuff but nothing really helps. Anyone else dealt with this??

I agree with trying a different detergent. Or using a little less of it and doing a second rinse in the washing machine.  My boobs were more sensitive and that seemed to work for me .

If there doesn't seem to be a specific medical cause, you might try changing your detergent. You might just be a little extra sensitive.

Yea mine has been doing it for like 4 months on and off, it will stop here and there and clear up then come back full force! And no he didn't tell me just said it wasn't an infection, said maybe to try a diff bra, said maybe I'm having a diff reaction to the wire now being pregnant,  but I did and it didn't help, I haven't mentioned it again since, but maybe I will again. And I'll try some hydrocortisone. Thanks ladies :)

Try rubbing coconut oil on them and with your docs permission all if benadryl is ok, if it's an allergic reaction the benadryl will take care of it and then you will know.  If not there is no harm done.  Benadryl is completely safe.

Nope, just change in hormones causing breasts to change, they said it's normal and since then it has gone away. It lasted like 3 days
