Pregnancy and skin problems?
ang3lb3al2 asked:
Hi I am 9 weeks pregnant, and my skin has always been very sensitive, and since been pregnant I pretty much react to everything. I have spots on my arms that are red dry patches of skin, not sure whats causing them. My skin has also become very dry. But my main problem is on my tummy I have this one spot that is very itchy and slightly drier than the surrounding area with redness like broken blood vessels around it.
Anyone know what it is or how to manage it?
I don’t use makeup, and I only use a moisturiser on my face. I have never used an all body moisturiser though.

Are you drinking enough water? Sounds like you could be dehydrated, look at your urine and if it’s very dark in color, you need more water.You might also want to have your thyroid levels checked. Have you been around any cats? It may also be ringworm, which is really a fungus. Cocoa butter cream for stretch marks may help, there is also an oil spray for itchy skin, oatmeal creams/lotions such as Aveeno also help with itching. Hope this helps! doreenangier
