Spots?

**babytoo** · 12-10-2005 20:22

Has anyone experienced spots on their body ie legs, tummy, breasts at all? I think that it has to do with heat as well (I live in Queensland) and was reading that all the increased blood flow etc can give you spots and or rashes? They look like pimples (but no head) and I have several on my legs at the moment and a couple just under my breasts

I used to get heat rash and it's similar to your rash (on my arms). I got them when the weather was hot (obviously) and way way before I fell pregnant.

I still get them occasionally I put cream on them to stop the itch. The cream is prescribed.

You should see your Doc if you have alot of them and if they are causing you discomfort.

Regards,

I get spots on my arms, but my skin in general seemed to be a lot drier when I am pregnant. And soon after giving birth I got a wierd rash on my hands, which cleared up eventually. Could have been from washing my hands so much

If it starts weeping or gets painful go see your doctor, but try extra moisturising cream like body butter or aloe vera cream

Yep i had spots on my legs and under my arms. I only had them at the end of pg though. I think it has to do with the lovely hormones that is produced by pg!

I wouldnt worry about them, its pretty common.
