pkay i have PUPPS and its a rash that lots
of pregnant women get
it sucks
best thing i can tell you is call your dr
for it
if it is PUPPS (i hope its not because
seriously im miserable because of mine
 )
the they can give you steroid creme for
it
until then go buy some hydrocortizone
creme and some calamine lotion to help
stop the itch
however it could also be dry skin
your belly streatches alot during
pregnancy causing your skin to dry out

How far along are you because PUPPS
usually doesn't start until the third
trimester sometime.

yeah it usually happens in the 3rd
trimester although some women get it
sooner
put lots of coco butter lotion on your
tummy  it may help!

It is possible to get it sooner but it's
more possible that your skin is itchy from
stretching. This is about the time when
your stomach will really start growing and
stretching. I'm going through the same
thing. I will be 26 weeks Friday.

I didn't get my lovely pregnancy tattoos
(that is what I call them because they are
my constant reminders of my pregnancies )
until I was a week before my due date. I
just woke up one day and was like what the
heck is that!!!! But they really have
faded quite a bit......so it's not too
bad.

I've been getting them on my butt and hips
since around 13 weeks from where my hips
spread. I just got the first one on my
belly this week and I am 25 weeks 4 days.
There's not much you can do. If you're
gonna get them, you will. It's mostly
genetics. I got stretch marks when I went
through my major growth spurt when I was
like 13 so I figured I would get them now.
They do fade though so don't worry.

anything on my stomach. It was itching
from stretching.

I think what you are experiencing is
stretching of the skin .That causes the
itch. I did not get any stretch marks
whatsoever so i wouldn't be able to help
but i knwo some women get them early on
and some get them late , regardless of the
timing they usually are there to stay.
