I'm almost 39 weeks pregnant and I've got these annoying red rashes around my belly that are super itchy. Im not sure if theyre from using a razor or what. Is it safe for me to take levocet to help with this? And would it be okay to try just one dose, given I could be heading to the hospital for delivery any day now?
