I had it last pregnancy and it sucked soooo bad . I never heard of it before till last pregnancy when my mom told me bout it . It was so hard to get ride of . And I had it from 2nd trimester all the way up till about a month after having my son !): so far , I got lucky and didn't have it with this pregnancy and I'm having another boy . But I was told , it's most common when your having a boy then a girl .

O my gash gf I have this so far it's in both my forearms but my belly is all red and im 37weeks with  a boy too.  I have no idea what to take or put I'm just rubbing baby lotion on my belly now because at first Itthought it might have been allergy to one of the stretchmarks lotions I bought witch I doubted because I've been using those products since I started pregnancy.  Message me on fb if youhave one tell me how your ppupps is going away or being treated because it's really rare mostly in Scandinavian women.  I'm Mexican.

Like they said above, cold rags and also try an oatmeal bath. You can get it at any drug store or walmart, it's made by aveeno I'm sure there are some generic brands as well but it's what they put me in as a kid with chicken pox and as an adult with unexplainable severe case of hives. Other than that try not to scratch it'll only get worse. Dr might be able to give you a cream but you can try calamine lotion.

What I did was always keep a cold wet rag and just leave it on the itchy part.

I had it with my last pregnancy towards the end, it was awful only relief I had was when I had a bath or put a cold compress on my bump where it was itchy. Apparently its more common with woman having boys which I had in my last pregnancy.
