I have this weird sun allergy which I talked about here on my other blog. It's really painful, red and itchy! Luckily it's just on my arms and neck.
When I googled it I found out that it was due to excess estrogeon during pregnancy. And I also discovered that there isn't anything to be done about it. I just have to try to avoid the sun. I'm sure it's common to lots of women but I suppose if you don't have a summer pregnancy then you never realize it.

Ouch. That sounds miserable, Chris. I remember a friend had that and the only solution was to stay out of the sun as much as possible. Hard to do, I know. I hope it doesn't get worse.
BTW, I was too rushed to post a comment, but your underwear post made me laugh! Ah! The indignities of pregnancy.
Eeek that sounds nasty! All that happened to my skin in my summer pregnancy was I tanned more than usual.
Maybe it'll ease up as the pregnancy progresses? Fingers crossed!
I understand you. The same happened to me while I was pregnant a 1,5 year ago. My body and organism changed. But they have changed more after the childbirth. So be ready!
