Anyone have or have had PUPPS?

I am not sure if that is what I have or just dry skin, but the last two nights I have woken up with hives like itchiness on my upper arms and thighs. I kinda of feel it all over and throughout the day, but mainly in those two areas at night...BTW I am 29wks 3days

    I don't know what PUPPS is, so I'm guessing I've never had it :) But, it doesn't sound fun - hope you feel better soon. When is your next OB appt?

    Next Wednesday. I am hoping it's just dry skin and if I keep moisturizing it will get better. My FB friends tell me PUPPS is common with first time pregnancies and especially for women pregnant with boys, yet two of my friends that had girls had PUPPS. I am going to talk to my doc about it next week and from now until them its lotion and oatmeal baths!
