Im 5 months and suddenly sneezing nonstop, never had this before in my life. Some foods also feel like theyre not suiting me now. Can pregnancy actually cause new allergies or am i imagining it? anyone else noticed this.
It can happen, hormones do funny things. But please dont take any antihistamine or allergy tablet on your own, some are not advised in pregnancy. Tell your gynac what you are reacting to and let her suggest something safe.
Yes actually, my doctor said the immune system and hormones change a lot in pregnancy so new sensitivities can show up. I suddenly became sensitive to some foods I always ate fine. She told me to note down what triggers it and avoid that, and check before taking any allergy medicine.
Mere saath bhi hua, I got skin rashes from things that never bothered me before. It calmed down after delivery. For now just keep away from whatever triggers it and mention it at your checkup.
It does seem to happen for some, our bodies react differently during these months. I wouldnt panic but I also wouldnt ignore it. A quick word with your doctor is worth it just to be safe na.
