Dear Kimberly,

I had hives with my second pregnancy. I had never had hives before this and have not had them since. I went to three different doctors to find out what was going on, because I was so miserable. None of the doctors had ever heard of hives being a part of pregnancy, so they all assumed it was not a symptom of the pregnancy. They had no suggestions for me either, but I found that oatmeal baths and oatmeal lotions helped alot. They lasted 6 long weeks and never returned until today. I am now pregnant with my third child. Hope this helps and I wish you the best of luck!
