very dry skin?

[Angel_baby1]

So I have had dry skin all my life. But since I've been pregnant it is so much worse. No matter how much lotion I put on it doesn't help! Any suggestions?

it sounds strange but try using oil Like cooking oil...
also try putting on your lotion (ointments are best) and put glad wrap over it... a few layers... I do this to my legs at night and it works wonders...
good luck

I hate it! It is driving me crazy. I mean I could handle my dry skin before. I was used to it. But this is like 10× worse. Ugh! And I don't take hot showers or baths. They are Luke warm. And I'm using a lotion that has Shea butter, oatmeal, and vitamin e. Same as I have used for years.

Drink lots of water, and don't take hot showers or baths. I use lotion with vitamin E and put it on before I'm completely dry from the shower.
