Itchy skin??

Question

Does anyone else have terribly itchy skin?? My arms, and especially my legs are driving me crazy they are so itchy! I've been putting on lotion but it only seems to help for a little while. I don't recall having this issue with my other pregnancies.

Answer

I have itchy skin too, but I've also always had drier skin. I've always put lotion on twice a day. I don't want to worry you by any means but severely itchy skin, especially in certain areas can mean a problem with the liver during pregnancy, it's called Cholestasis. It's most likely not that, but just in case I figured I'd share some of my knowledge with you!!

Answer

I'd mention that to your doc just to be safe 😊

Answer

I have eczema ☹️ sooo if I thought that my skin was bad before... now its worse that I'm pregnant now my skin will break and lotion will burn my arms and back and now it's slowly spreading to my chest.. and I've used literally everything and no success

Answer

Don't scratch ! It will create stretch marks 😭

Answer

I am having my first baby and I suffer with itchy skin too , spoke to a pregnant colleague of mine and she suggested changing my washing powder to non bio as may help so you may want to try that :)
