This is what the internet says: Mild itching is usually nothing to worry about, but if the itching becomes severe it can be a sign of a liver condition called 'obstetric cholestasis', or 'intrahepatic cholestasis of pregnancy' (ICP).
Opinions please!
At what point should itchiness become a concern? My hands and feet have been getting so itchy lately with no visible reason why. It gets to a point that I'm scratching myself raw almost and it keeps me up at night because I'm too itchy to sleep.
I've emailed my midwifery so they're going to get back to me soon, I just didn't call/page them because one of my midwives always makes me feel dumb whenever I do 🙃
But I've seen a lot about ICP and I've had a history of having slow moving bile so I don't know if pregnancy could aggravate that and make things worse.
