I had very obvious red rashes on my tummy during 3rd trimester. Not itchy at all too. It went off in 2 days.

I had that during second trimester and it scared me so much! I thought I had allergic reaction and self medicated (bad mistake) but the medication didn't help to bring down the rashes.

It's just a normal process when your tummy expands! But do apply moisturizer to make yourself feel better and try hard not to scratch! I scratched and it hyperpigmented and looks so ugly right now! Nevertheless, it's nothing harmful to the baby so don't worry about it! I'm still suffering from the itch but getting better if I don't scratch
