Rash during pregnancy should I be worried?

Hi everyone, I noticed I have a weird rash on my shoulders a little bit on my back. It came out of nowhere today and I’ve contacted my GP but of course they will talk to me no earlier than Friday (which is in a week time). I’m 9 weeks pregnant and I’m just worried if it’s something bad and if I need to do something urgent, as contacting my GP is always a nightmare.

I still don’t have a midwife, so can’t go there either. Has anyone experienced anything similar, is it normal?

For something like a rash, it's easier to see a pharmacist who will be able to recommend a treatment

Hi there, I had a really bad rush during pregnancy, it was PUPPS. I went to a dermatologist who prescribed a good cure....Hope you have a proper visit.

Call the GP urgently, I suggest.
