PUPPS

Warning: This is a whiny pregnant lady rant.

My OB confirmed the PUPPS "diagnosis" on Friday. OH. MY. GOSH. This shit is itchy! It's waking me up at night, it's so bad. I fit the descriptions so well; first baby, having a boy, onset around 35 weeks, started on my belly stretch marks and is now spreading to my hands, feet and, the best one, my butt cheeks. Lovely. Dr. L said to use hydrocortisone cream, so I am carrying a giant tube around with me everywhere I go. There isn't much else to do since there is no cure except delivering your baby. The good news is that it doesn't affect baby or Mom, so I am thankful for that. But let's just say, after we hit 37 weeks, that I am ready to have this baby!!!!
