Sue, I'm so far behind on posts I'm embarrassed to respond so late, and hope
you got the help you needed for this mom. I know a mother of twins who had
severe PUPPS. It took a few weeks postpartum for it to resolve. She found
Aveeno oatmeal baths to be soothing. She took the antihistamines while
pregnant, but they didn't help that much. I believe she omitted them
postpartum.
PUPPS is something one gets during pregnancy, so I'm amazed breastfeeding is
being blamed for it.
