Pregnancy, PUPPS RASH and CAH...and relationship?
May. 30th, 2005   10:03pm

Hello!  I have a 8 month old SWCAH boy and when I was pregnant with him, I developed a horrible PUPPS rash start at week 37, I think.  I was very late into the pregnancy and we induced early because of it.  If any of you have had this rash you know how horrible it is.  Anyways, I am now pregnant with baby #2, 9 weeks, and am on the dexamethasone with this pregnancy.  (Since he was my first and we did not know that we we carriers, no dex was used with the first.)  Well, the rash has come back, not as bad, but it is back.  At 9 weeks!  Has any other mothers heard or had any experiences with this rash maybe connecting it to CAH?  I have not ever heard anything  about a connection and no doctor, gyno, endo or dermo has ever told me about, so I thought I might speak with the women who have been through a pregnancy, knowing that they are carriers of the CAH gene.  ANY pregnancy help would be much appreciated.  We go for CVS testing on June 8th.  Please keep us in your prayers for a healthy baby!!!  Thank you!
