    I’ve been covering myself in oil to stop stretch marks as they are forming and moisturisers. Just took my bra off and they are covered in a huge red rash that looks like prickly heat! What should I do? It’s all over my boobs and is so uncomfortable xx

    @eleanorpoll I got this rash too at around the 3WPO mark, it looked like prickly heat and it was itchy. I don’t know what it was or why I got it but I just ran the shower on it for a while and then moisturised after and left my bra off for a while and it seemed to disappear. If it doesn’t go within a day or two it might be worth asking over the counter at a chemist xxx

    I was told not to use any oils etc for the first 6 weeks. Maybe try a hydrocotazone cream to take the sting off them then leave them be until your a bit further. Xx

    Ooh Ellie that looks so sore definitely get yourself checked out, maybe a cold flannel draped over them may help soothe for the time being? Let us know how you get on 🙁 xxx

    That is definitely a reaction to something. Lots of people take reactions and they go within ahours/days but some can become serious. If you havnt already done it take antihistamine but get a gp emergency app asap
