crazy itching under the skin!

It's only in my palms and finger and it's driving me mad! It feels like my hands are going to swell but they haven't so far anybody know what this is or had this itching under the skin before?

I had this and it turned out to be a condition called obstetric cholestasis. You will need to speak with your midwife/doctor and they will run a blood test to tell u for sure. But don't worry if it is this. You will be fine x

Oh my gosh yes I had that with both of my boys it came at my third trimester but it was my palms, and feet and actually it ended up itching everywhere I was extremely uncomfortable in the last month and pretty much miserable with no sleep unfortunately I don't think there is anything you can do to subside the itch but I would probably talk to your doctor and see what he recommends
