Lurker with a question...

Hey there!

I usually lurk here but have a question maybe one of you ladies could help me with... For the last couple of days my boobs have been super itchy (I thought it was bc they were growing, changing, being pg, etc). Last night, I got out of the shower and felt them REALLY itching. I looked down and saw these bumps that were very small and feel like grains of sand when I run my hand over them. This morning I woke up and they are concentrated more on my boobs and underneath them, however, they are spread across my belly now too. They hurt so bad and itch like crazy!!!!!!!! I called my OB and the nurse said it's a pg rash and to take Claritin, I can take Benedryl sparingly, I can soak in an oatmeal bath, and I can use topical cream sparingly. She said heat makes it worse (which is great bc this is where I am heated the most!), and it doesn't go away until after birth! F.M.L. Is anyone else in my boat? Any other remedies?? I'm desperate (and itchy).
