Weird skin
Why does your skin itch when your pregnant? And, I mean, why does it itch everywhere?
Your skin tends to stretch everywhere when pregnant. My thighs are always really itchy.
Thanks everyone who answered. I figured it was from stretching and what not, I was just wondering if it's normal for everywhere to itch. I think the only place that's not itch is my tummy.
It's from your skin stretching, but do your best not to itch it. I would just put some oil or lotion on it. From what I've heard scratching can make the strechmarks worse if you. I just tried to rub the area with my hand rather than scrach away.
because it's being stretched? I"m barely 5 weeks...is it already stretching? Cuz mine itches crazy too!!
I remember itching with my daughter. It would drive me crazy. I never did scratch my belly though. I would rub with oil/lotion instead to avoid stretchmarks. I have no stretchmarks after 2 babies.
