Still waiting to get my pregnancy confirmed or denied but I developed the WORST eczema on my legs in the past month. I itch non stop. What I started doing was taking lukewarm showers instead of hot, using Eucerin calming shower oil and then immediately after the shower lathering on tons and tons of Eucerin calming cream and letting it soak in for 5 minutes before rubbing it in. If you can, wait to put on clothes for a half hour or so until all the cream soaks in (I found that the cream acts as a barrier to the clothes, otherwise as my pants touch my legs the itching starts all over). I still get the urge to itch throughout the day, but I try my best NOT to, because it only gets worse. The Eucerin is nice and thick and that helps, plus theres no fragrances or anything that can aggravate your skin, so my suggestion would be to try that and see if it works for you!

Would be because of stretch marks? They says its bad to itch or they get worse.
