Belly itching (top only)

The top of my belly is itching like CRAZY!  It's right under the sternum and cocoa butter doesn't help... Lotions don't help.  What can I use to calm the belly itch???  I am afraid I will break the skin from scratching it, but it's REALLY bad.

My students keep looking at me like I'm nuts cause I keep scratching my belly.  One student (who is currently 2 months ahead of me in her pregnancy) just keeps shaking her head and smiling.  SHE gets it.  I love teaching high school.  Lol
