Itchy all over

[Mom_pt2]

Im 31+2 and for the last week or so I've been itchy all over my body. I tried everything warm showers, I put lotion on constantly, I even tried using palmers dry skin oil. Im I the only one feeling this? How can I stop this its getting annoying.

So I called my dr and he said to try the pink lotion people put on their skin for chicken pox. I might spell this wrong calamine lotion. Im getting that and buying none instant oatmeal tomorrow. Its really bad I haven't been able to sleep with all the scratching. I just hope its pregnancy itch and not ICP. Im hoping my dr sends me to get lab work to check my liver function on my next apt.

drink more water! i asked my Dr when i was itching all over. she told me your skin itches when it swells also and to drink more water.

I just had an itching fit, it was horrible. Tried showering off in cool water, didn't help. In desperation I grabbed oatmeal from my pantry and dumped it in warm water in the tub, felt better in just a couple of minutes though still having random itching in spots, it's not as bad. Mental note to self: always keep non-instant oatmeal on hand.

Im 30 weeks and after a warm shower i get out dry off then i put johnson baby oil gel all over my body and it has helped with itchy skin and has took away stretch marks on my boobs and belly. If you look on my photos it took away every stretch mark i had. I put it on and let it soak in might be a little sticky or greasy at first but its way worth it!!
