Its because your body is stretching and that tends to make you itch. But try not to. It'll give you bad stretch marks, even though you're probably going to get them anyways. I'd apply coco bitter that has vitamin e in it 2-3 times a day.

My first pregnancy my skin became so sensitive and itchy. I started using dove body wash and aveeno moisturizer and it helped a lot!!! I am now on baby #2 and it's the same way!!!!

I started getting itchy two weeks ago and I'm 35 weeks pregnant.  Cocobutter helps me, try it and it might work & helped me with my stretch marks too.
