hives

anybody got Hives during their pregnancy? I'm 28 weeks + and suddenly got hives 2 days ago. at first I thought it was a new food allergy but it has been 2 days and still not better! it's driving me insane! any tips/advice? I have been to the doctors and given steroid cream and anti-histamines but neither is working. my hives might appear to subside only to come back when I'm sleeping.

My hives will come when I’m too hot. And doc also advise me don’t let me body temperature fluctuate suddenly . Sometimes blood test won’t give you any results also .

if u don't wanna pound the oats into powder it's fine also. cos most importantly u apply the starchy water from the oats on your body. just that washing off is quite messy

Hi... unless you take a through allergy tests, it is very difficult to determine the triggers. You’ve visited your gynecologist and on medications. I guess there’s nothing much you can do except to sit/wait it out.
