itchy skin

Hey everyone, I'm 23 weeks and have very itchy skin all of the sudden. These little bumps just appeared over night and are extremely itchy. Is anyone else having these issues?

Itchy skin is normal, however if the palms of hands and soles of feet are itchy or have a rash it could be Obstetric Cholistasis. Which is treated usually with medication and Vit K. Its due to the pregnancy.  Call your doctor and have him check it out. No reason for alarm.

My sister had a raj the last month of her pregnancy . The dr told her it was due to her pregnancy. But I hope it's not that because you are barely 5 months.. it lasted till the end of her pregnancy..
