29 wks pregnant, skin sensitive to touch around belly and sides, almost burns, what causes??

Question:

i am 29 weeks pregnant and yesterday i got this burning sensation in my back area, today it has moved completely around my right side and is almost to my navel. hurts to touch all the way around, kinda feels like a sunburn would, hurts only when something touches it. what would cause this?

Answers:
It's probably just your skin stretching to accomodate the baby. Check with your OB just to be sure.

Other Answers:
i'm not pregnant, but i have the same thing. there's no visual sign of anything -- like a rash or anything. but its SO sensitive to the touch and feels like a sunburn. ii've had it around my legs - starts at one calf, and then the next day it could be up on the other leg at the thigh. also on my torso. its weird. i saw my doctor about it months ago and got blood work done. they couldn'd find anything wrong -- she said most likely its caused by stress.

It's just your skin streatching, try rubbing some cocobutter lotion on it. It also helps with streach marks
