I sleep with my feet propped up and my boyfriend rubs lotion on my feet just about every night. Only a few more days left til my baby boy us due so hopefully once he's here it goes away

I have been having the same problem.. but they also get incredibly sore. I've heard soaking them in a menthol type oil with hot water will help sooth itch.. but make sure you are putting your feet up at night.. raise them above your heart on some pillows. Use lotions too.. swelling causes stretching which can dry out your skin.. that's one reason they can get itchy.
