I would try switching creams and also for me if I wear tighter clothes I tend to get more itchy so maybe try some roomy t-shirts and sweat pants whenever you can
I had PUPPPS terribly. I did a big regimine to cleanse my liver and some skin care stuff. All wholistic herbs and stuff. My PUPPPS went away in about two weeks and I was itching so bad I wasn't sleeping at night. I found the list of things I did on a forum and a ladies midwife had recommended it to her. I can list the stuff I did if you all with PUPPPS would like me too. I thought I was going to be suffering until delivery and was so relieves when it went away, and I read many ladies find no relief
Warm showers add to the itching if you take a warm shower just spend like the last 30 seconds in colder water and it should stop some of the itching
I just came from l&d because my doc send me due to itchy. They did blood work just waiting for my results. After reading it might be normal I also got scared reading possible things I might have lile doulamommy said. Hopefully my results come out good because I am pretty scared
I was very itchy with lots of bumps all over my body my doctor told me I was vitamin c deficient so I started eating fruits with vitamin c and it went away
I have the same problem i am 27 weeks and i just tbrought it was normal. But turns out i have PUPPS.
Nothing works for me at all. Hopefully u find something
Use coco butter lotion it works great for me to moisturize the skin
I'm.having the same issue I itch I use palmers cocoa butter an lots of lotion
You could be having a reaction to the cocoa butter. I had the same problem and my OB said alot of girls are alergic to it. Try just using Vitamin E oil. It took almost all my stretch marks away and all the itching.
I have this too ive itched so much my legs are weeping slightly I was told its normal to itch.. I use E45, unsented moistoriser its helping.. but im still scratching, but alot less then i was. So maybe change your cream if it doesn't help. Still contact the midwife thought
I am always itchy. You are not alone.
Calamine lotion helps me :)
Its ment for itchy skin they normally use it when people get chickenpox
Itchy skin is very normal during pregnancy, and will be even worse duringthis time of year due to the weather and temperature. I've been going threw it as well. I recommend the cocoa butter at least 3x a day and drinking at least 3-5 bottles of water a day.
Severe itching can be a sign of coleostasis, which is a liver condition that's very dangerous to you and baby. It could be a sign of gallbladder issues. It could be PUPPS rash (especially if you're having a boy). Call your Dr/midwife first thing in the morning and ask about it. Most likely they'll order a blood test to test your bile levels to diagnose or rule out coleostasis.
