I am getting so zitty.  I'm not sure if the recent face breakouts are related to hormones or my cutting off Proactiv, but since I was doing just fine without the Proactiv for about a month, I blame the hormones.  Especially since I am also having weird breakouts in places I would not have used Proactiv anyway.  But I have zits on my face, chin, cleavage, belly, back, and my personal favorite, behind my ears.  And yes, I'm making a specific point of washing behind my ears now.  Bizarre.

Other skin issues are also fun.  I'm using up oceans of lotion to stave off itchy, dry skin.  This primarily works except for that spot on my back I can't ever reach.  I love my back scratcher.  

I've seen info on "skin tags" in a lot of places, thankfully.  There just little pieces of hanging skin that are completely normal in pregnancy.  Had I not read about them, I'd be convinced I have skin cancer on a spot on my upper body that hasn't ever seen any sun except maybe as a baby when I'd have been running around outside in just a diaper.  

In other fun, I noticed the other night that I had swollen feet.  This was after the cookie fiasco so I had been on my feet for a while later in the day so I guess I'm not surprised it showed up then.  I just have to make sure I rest periodically with my feet up.  Guess it's good the retail thing didn't happen, after all.  That would have been disastrous for my feet.

Oh, that's so weird that you are getting LESS hair. Definitely one of the up sides to your pregnancy...
