Not feeling good makes it easier to stay in bed though. I took some Benadryl last night too. It didn't help the itching at all but I was sound asleep before Jeff even came to bed.
**I saw my doctor in the late afternoon. The rash had started to cover a lot more of my body and when he say it his exact words were "that's quite a rash Autumn" LOL. He said it could be from the Terbutaline but he's never had a patient react to it before. He said it could also be a PUPPP rash that happens during pregnancy. This is an auto immune rash some women get and they don't know why. The only cure is delivery. Obviously we're not ready for that, so he just changed my prescription and recommended an anti-itch cream. Isn't my pregnancy experience lovely?

Just think of the volumes of journals you could fill with all these experiences. Maybe someday you could write a book. What would the title be?....
I think the title would be "Pregnancy is not for Wimps" unless you are one of the stinkers who get NOTHING and have super easy labor. I know one of them, and I secretly want to kick her.
My friend had a rash like that. It got really really bad before she delivered and then went away right afterwards. She was pregnant during the summer too but she didn't have air conditioning, so she was really really miserable. I hope it doesn't get too bad for you! You are a tough woman!
This is my third baby Dr. Groom has been my OB for and he's just amazed that I'm having all these complications when I've never had any before. The rash covers most of my body but it doesn't all itch at once so that's good :)
Think of how grateful you will be when baby girl is here (instead of being pg). I'm amazed at all your complications too.
My cousin was just telling me how she had to be induced because of PUPP and how the doctors, nurses, and everybody said like your dr did..."wow, that is a bad rash!" like she didn't know it already. Kind of funny. I'm sorry you're having such a rotten pregnancy experience!! Bleh!
