Mera pet aur thighs pe bohot itching ho rahi hai since last week. Im 30 weeks. Just want to know is this a normal pregnancy thing ya something i should mention to my gynac? Anyone else faced this?
Look, mild itching on the belly is totally normal. But if you have intense itching on your palms and soles, please check with your doctor immediately because that can sometimes indicate liver issues. Don't ignore it.
Itching is quite common, but please don't ignore it if it becomes severe. Having a PCOS history made me super cautious during my pregnancy, so I always kept my doctor in the loop about even minor skin changes.
Oh yes, my tummy started itching like crazy in the second trimester! Honestly, I just slathered a lot of bio-oil on it and went back to eating my favorite samosas to distract myself, food is the best distraction haha.
Omg even I am facing this right now in my second trimester! My stomach feels so itchy and dry all the time. Is this normal or should I be worried? Pls tell me what u guys did.
Yes, skin stretching causes a lot of dryness and itching. I used to apply cold-pressed coconut oil right after my light walk, which my gynac had cleared me for. Walking kept me distracted too.
Beta, skin dry ho jati hai is time pe. Apply simple ghar ka coconut oil or fresh aloe vera gel gently, scratch mat karna nails se. If it still doesn't get better, ask your doctor.
Actually it is super common yaar. My doctor told me the skin stretches as the baby grows, which causes dryness. Just apply a heavy moisturizer or coconut oil right after shower.
