Im in my second trimester and suddenly my skin feels so dry and flaky, especially on my arms and legs. Never had this issue before pregnancy. Is this a hormone thing, anyone else faced it?
Totally normal, hormones mess with your skin. Mine went dry first pregnancy and oily the second, no logic. Keep yourself hydrated and oil/cream daily. If itching becomes really intense though, mention it to your doctor.
Yes! My skin felt so dry and stretched, especially the tummy and legs. I felt itchy at times. Lots of moisturiser and drinking enough water helped me a lot.
Happened to me too, the dryness. Drinking plenty water and a simple coconut oil massage after bath sorted it mostly. Staying active and hydrated really helps the skin. Nothing to worry about unless it's extreme.
Dry skin yes is normal, but I'll just add, if you get severe itching especially on palms and soles, please tell your gynac, sometimes it needs checking. Otherwise regular dryness is fine, just keep it moisturised.
Haan beta pregnancy mein skin dry ho jaati hai. Ghar pe malai ya nariyal tel laga lo, bahut araam milta hai. Bas paani khoob piyo, andar se hydration sabse zaroori hai.
