Itchy palm and feet..

I am currently 27w2days, ftm. Since the last few days i have noticed that my palm and feet has been itching. It isnt severe or something that makes me uncomfortable. But definitely its noticable. I did some googling and it says could be a liver issue. And now i am scared. My doctors appontment is on 1st August.

It would be great help if anyone could shared your experience or had any tips. I am really hoping that my liver is not the issue.  :(

I have that and it is due to fluid starting to build up in my legs (palms aren't itching for me). I either have my husband massage my legs at night or I wear compression socks and elevate my feet for an hour or so before bed. Both really help!

My close friend had cholestasis during her pregnacy. I would call your doctor and just mention the symptoms to see if you should get checked out sooner. S
I know she was in high risk because of it, for herself and the baby
I don't want to worry you. But just call your doctor and air on the side of caution
