Answers:
At this stage you are seeing your doctor either weekly or every other week. Ask your doctor.

itchy red spots sounds like what i had (called pupp or puppp) which is nothing serious just a reaction. try benedryl. the shooting pains are not part of that. so i would call your doc
sounds like you need to see your ob gyn asap the spots don't sound good the pains could be early signs of labor good luck and best wishes
When you're closer to your due date, you will get cramps and/or contractions. If these pain lasts in intervals of 5-10 minutes, then you're ready for labor. If they last longer, then it's just a false alarm. Also, if the feeling disappears, it's also a false alarm. As for your stomach, it's stretching, so you will feel itchy due to the lack of moisture. Do not scratch it. Put some lotion on it. Eventually, the itch will vanish.
hey shooting pains that rip from the pelvic and up? your pelvis is expanding, getting ready for birth, it takes a while, too much pain to do all the expanding at once during labor, so a little here a little there its okay, takes you be surprise don't it..
Could be a number of things. Contact your labour ward immediately. Most labour wards have instant access. Do not ignore this.
Could be a serious skin problem like pemphigus gestationis. Or it could be nothing.
Go to the labour ward.....
You are having braxton hicks it's perfectly normal-The only times to panic are

If you are dizzy
Bleeding vaginally
Acute stomach pain
Or less than 10 sets of movements per day from baby.

Relax it's perfectly normal to have slight pain as your uterus is growing and baby could be kicking a nerve-Please mention it though to your midwife as I'm sure she can put your mind at rest.
Get it checked out soon,there is a liver condition in pregnancy that causes itching and a rash.
Congrats..on the new baby due soon if you are having shooting pains yes you might be having early contractions when i was pregnant i felt the same feeling about 24 hours before my son was born also watch for any spotting of blood when you urinate it also means the baby is on the way,another reason for the shooting pain could be the baby is laying on a nerve but I would just to be safe call your obgyn just in case ..the spots on your belly I believe are probably just a reaction caused by any number of things like food,detergent so on and so on.hope this helps good luck to you and Jr.
i have also been getting sharp pains in my stomach and i am 33 weeks. i was hoping it was something normal and not something that shouldn't be happening. so since i'm not the only one getting them this late in the pregnancy i suppose they ARE normal; as for the red itchy spots on your stomach, i get those on my arms and on the backs of my thighs and i knew someone who had them while she was pregnant and she asked her doctor and he said they were just part of the pregnancy because your hormones are basically out of control and are doing whatever they want to. so i really don't think you have anything to worry about. the pains in your stomach are probably caused from the stretching of your stomach and the baby moving down getting ready to be born.
This happened to me also, but i was told it was just pressure pains as the babies head was resting on my cervix. Try not to panic.
at this stage u could be going into labour if u r worried phone ur midwife or hospital and have a little chat with them about it, and tell them about the spots just to be on the safe side, good lcuk xx
well the shooting pains could possibly be banxton hicks, are they like tightenings?
I had spots all up my legs and over my body, they ichted like mad, the dr said it was scabies, but they weren't in the webbing of my fingers where scabies are!
look up P.U.P.P.P i think this could almost certainly be the answer, don't worry it's not scary.Just a innocent skin problem during pregnancy!
quite normal on both counts you doctor can give you some cream to stop the itching, it used to drive me nuts and the shooting pains are probably just baby lying on a nerve when its moving about, not long to go now tho good luck
