Hi all I suffer from excema on my hands and would usually use steroid cream to clear it up..its quite bad at the moment but as I am approx 7 weeks pregnant i'm not sure if I sould use it still or not? Anyone know? I'm gonna ask the pharmacist or my gp when I get round to it but just thought i'd ask in case any of you knew first.. Thanks Sarah , Jamie (3), Bump 7 weeks

Hi I'm in exactly the same boat as you, I asked my midwife in my last pregnancy and she advised against it (Hydrocortizone). I'm not sure if you can put drapoline or a bit of E45 on I don't think it would hurt tho. Hope this helps x
