From my limited understanding, it is an itching condition of pregnancy.  It stands for something like pruritic urticarial papules and plagues.  I knew I had heard of it and I've looked it up in one of my many books - found something about it in Deborah Cooper's book "Your Baby, Your Way". 
 
In it she recommends:
- applying 100% jojoba oil
- applying chickweed or nettle ointment
 dandelion beverages instead of coffee
- a glass of beetroot, celery and carrot juice per day
