It could be heat rash. I also had a friend develop a rash in pregnancy and turned out it was PUPPP. I guess that is more typical with boys, and it is harmless. But PUPPP is usually very itchy, so I wouldn't think that is what you have.

if there is red stuff under the skin like dried blood, then it isnt heat rash (unless you scratched it too much), and you will need to see a doc/mw. I have always had hives on my tummy whilst pregnant - hives look like a nettle rash and the bumps come up and down and move all round.

Heat rash looks like bug bites.

I went to see the doctor today cos I developed a rash on my arm, and it spread very quickly. Turns out I've got a touch of exzema (which I've never had before).
The doctor said that when you're pregnant your skin can change dramatically and becomes very sensitive. So it could be a heat rash, or a slight allergic reaction to perfume, soap etc.
Keep an eye on it and if it spreads or gets alot worse then see your doctor asap.
Hope you feel better soon hun. xxx
