I think it depends on individuals.. I developed hives (It goes on and off thru out the day for a week) in 4th week of pregnancy. Later, my mum told me she got that when she is preg with me (lol). You may try chlorpheniramine/antihistamine . If it doesn't work for you (like me), you might want to try wear windbreaker and pant to cover yourself from wind (old people's saying but somehow it works for me). Otherwise, see a gynae if you can coz other docs (from my understanding after seeing two docs) can only give u the above two meds.. Hope this helps =)
