13 weeks and 4 days. Extremely itchy skin. Anyone else the same?

Question

Does anyone else have extremely itchy skin especially at night?  The top and bottom of my back, my neck and my stomach are the worst! Can hardly sleep at night because of it. Any suggestions or anyone else the same? I don't have a rash or anything it's just so itchy.

Answer

Yes! I have it in exactly those places.

Bio oil works very well. Seriously put a few layers on. It helps a lot. I also really like the Burts Bees baby massage oil. Smells amazing and sinks in quickly.

Normal lotions and creams just dont cut it for me. My hubby helps with the hard to reach spots. 💙

Answer

I'm 13 weeks and my itching started at 10 weeks. It gets so bad at night. One night I ended up going to the ER because it got so bad. They gave me benedryl and Zyrtec which helped a little but not much. I talked to my doctor and she had me get my blood drawn to check my bile acids. She was suspicious that it could be a condition called ICP, which has to do with the liver and gallbladder. I haven't gotten the results back yet. I would talk to your doctor just to rule it out!

Answer

Yes, very itchy! I use a lot of lotion and "baby balm" to help. I read that it's because your skin is stretching?

Answer

Report this to your doctor. You may have some type of deficiency.

Answer

Can be related to cholestasis, maybe talk to your Doctor about it
