Re: Rash after delivery?

Have you ever had Hives? I haven't had an outbreak in about 5 years, but I had them all over, didn't appear until I scratched an area... Benadryl works real good, and grinding up some oatmeal ( or buying Aveeno) in a warm bath, helps tremendously too. But see your doc or a dermatologist first, could be something totally different.

I delivered my daughter one week ago today. While I was pregnant I had a rash on the back of my legs around my stretch marks (pretty sight I know). Well, after I delivered it got worse instead of better! The itch is driving me crazy and after I scratch my stretch marks I get big red bumps, almost like welts. Is this just my skin shrinking back to normal size that is causing the itch or what? Will it clear up on its own? Is this normal? thanks so much.....Jennifer
