I have the same thing..it started on my back and stomach and spread to my face and legs...but it wasnt PUPS..it was just called a pregnancy rash. My Dr. said that alot of people get it..its all because of the change in your hormones and how your body reacts to the changes. Theres nothing you can do for it and it will go away a few days to a week after you deliver..(as i was told anyway). PUPS is a VERY bad rash looks almost like a burn on your skin or something..but if the bumps are small pimple like(but not pimples) spots then you are probably just stuck with it for a while. But I did find that Honey Oatmeal facial scrub helped to dry it up and stop the itch. It didnt make it go away but it made it easier to live..lol. Good Luck I wish you the best!!

it's more than likely a pregnancy rash. I got it around 31 weeks. it started in the same places, then moved down onto my stomach, and my legs. but cleared off the areas it had started. my face, chest and hands looked better in about a week, but my legs and stomach were covered until I delivered at 34 weeks. mine didn't really blister though, it was just really blotchy allllll over. so you may still want to get it checked. but rashes are very common at the end of pregnancies.

I cannot corelate the pregnancy and the rash my self, Miss, however I am concerned about this. A rash can indicate a systemic problem....something capable of spreading, becoming worse. Any fever? Trouble breathing? Do you have any allergies? Please call your MD or advice RN or someone who knows better than I for further info and advice. If any of the above questions I posed are yes, go to the hospital now...call 911 if necessary. Good luck.

I would call your dr. I had a rash at the end of my first pregnancy that was pregnancy related. It was not on my face though and I have read about the rash that I had and it says that the type I had isn't on your face. Have you had chicken pox before?

Ya it almost reminds you of poison Ivy or roseola. I had it with all four of my children and asked my doctor about it each time just cause it was scary and bothersome. He told me it has something to do with the hormones late in your pregnancy. I had it so bad my stomach was red. But talk to your doctor they can give you a cream to put on it

PUP ~ Pregnancy rash, your doctor should be able to let you use hydrocortizone for it. But check with him or her first.

Should you be scared, No.
But you need to get into see the doctor. You might be having a allergic reaction to something.
He might give you something to take for it.
