itching

[damianana]

I have a question girls. I'm 34 weeks and 2 days ago I started itching all over my body. This is my second pregnancy and didn't go through this that time. I called the nurse last night she said just to take benadril. But I'm talking about itching in my has neck back stomach legs. Has anyone gone through this?

And to the one with the bumps... Start washing with baby wash. I use it cause my skin was looking like i had chicken pox. It went away in about two days. Horones are a mofo... Lol

Try moisturizing. Your skin is stretching.. It could just be that..

Thanks you so much for the information. Just made a doctor appointment to see my doctor today.

I am! I'm all itchy and I mean everwhere!!! It's horrible!  The worst thing I've ever had in my life. I also have bumps everwhere too due to the itching...yeah, not a pretty site. I can't even sleep due to it. But my OB said it's normal to be itchy during pregnancy, however,  severe itchiness is not. It can be a liver problem like Leannejoy said above me or PUPPS. And the liver problem, aka cholestasis, can be diagnosed by a blood test. Good luck! I hope it goes away!
