I had a small eczema flare towards the end of the pregnancy to the first few months and my immune system seems to be weaker then it was before I had her. When I was pregnant the smell of crabs and shrimp and sometimes fish made me so nauseous. Now I eat fish but I haven’t gotten back to eating crabs or shrimp.
Yes. For 2 years i couldn't eat fish! I developed an intolerance to it and it made me so poorly. My son's 2.5 now and I can eat it again. I also developed a liver tumor (small and benign) which means I can't eat too much fatty food because it pushes on my bile ducts and stops them emptying fully. The only way they can empty is to make me 🤮 x
Pregnancy destroyed my feet. It’s like it quished them flat, had to get new shoes and everything.
I've got a gap between my front teeth that I never had before
My skin is so dry, my hands get little cuts from how dry they are. This is exacerbated by the fact that I wash my hands a lot and even more so now that I have a little one. It’s killing me.
I had eczema flares up after giving birth. And my skin is so dry that it cracks and bleeds now. I only had eczema on my arms and since giving birth I go it everywhere in my body except my face
My eczema was HORRIFIC for the first 9 months after giving birth. I have always only ever had it on the creases of my arms and the backs of my legs. After having my daughter I ended up having it all down my thighs, my armpits, my chest, up my neck, patches on my face and all on my back I was constantly itching everywhere
I am allergic to penicillin while pregnant. I have not had a need after pregnancy to see if I am still allergic. I was not before I got pregnant
I developed quite severe eczema on my hands since giving birth, even just warm water sets it off!
I have had a ton of scalp issues, itchy, dry and just super sensitive and painful. Not the same as you but I did find it to be a weird thing that changed for me after I had my baby.
