Super Itchy in 3rd Trimester
So about two and a half weeks ago, my whole body itched like crazy! It started with my tummy and I thought it was just my stretch marks. Then I got it in the palms of my hands then it was the bottom of my feet a couple days later. I never got any rashes just constant itching. My sister is an RN and suggested I call my OB/GYN and I am beyond grateful that I did! I was diagnosed with Cholestasis of Pregnancy which means my body is mass producing estrogen and progesterone and basically my liver can’t keep up filtering out what my gallbladder does. This causes bile back up and if it gets too backed up, it can possibly get into Baby’s blood stream and cause fatality. So my original due date is February 22,2018; and they scheduled my c-section for February 1,2018.
I just want to make any other moms aware that anything can happen! And, DON’T BE AFRAID TO CALL YOUR DOCTOR!!!! ☺️
