Relief for itchy skin?

So, I'm expecting my third child in June. While my first two pregnancies were beyond easy,  this pregnancy has not been fun...

Most recent problem has been uncontrollable itchy skin... I've tried hydrocorizone, and it hasn't helped at all. So, any tops

I have eczema and if been in the same position thus pregnancy. No creams worked. I ended up having to go on very very mild cortisone tablets. But I'm only aloud them because I'm almost in the third trimester. He said its less risk giving me mild ones now rather than waiting and it becoming so bad that I would have to have strong ones or injections. I would talk to your doc. Porridge baths helped with my itchyness a bit too. Basicly a couple of cups of quick oats in a warm (not hot) bath. Hope you get some relief soon. :)
