Postpartum issues - Anyone breaking out in hives?

[bajamergrrl]

I've been breaking out in hives on various parts of my body. Anyone else experiencing this? A quick google search told me that this isn't exactly uncommon.

I'm not, but I used to work for an OB and it is pretty common... I am sure it's related to the hormones somehow. Lots of women experience strange skin issues after giving birth. I am itchy but no hives have come out. I keep thinking I am getting bug bites but the itch goes away so quickly that I know its just a weird skin thing. Feel better!
