Weird, weird, weird. Last weekend, I squeezed into some pre-pregnancy, winter clothes and took our dogs for a walk. And while it was cold out, it felt great to be out with the dogs- despite a slight burning, itchy sensation. When we got home, I had hives on my neck and on my legs (pic #2). Ugggg. Since then I've had to be careful of touching or eating anything too cold- snow, ice cubes, cold water,... Saw my doctor this week for a regularly scheduled appt (my 6 wk post partum) and found out I have cold urticaria. Weird- had never heard of it before. Will begin taking Zyrtec which will hopefully help. Top pic was from having a cold jar touch my forearm. Hoping to stay warm, -R
