Im only like 5 weeks and my tummy keeps itching, thought it usually starts later when belly grows. Is this normal so early or just me? anyone else felt this?
Itch? My stomach was a full-time scratchpad, haan! Like a mosquito decided to have a party there. I used to slather so much moisturizer, I swear I could glide across the floor. It's pretty normal, but if it gets crazy, tell your doc!
I totally understand, that itching feeling can be so annoying when you're already going through so much. It's often your skin stretching and getting drier. Just keep it well-moisturized, and if it becomes really intense, do share it with your doctor. You're doing great, mama!
Haan, sweetheart, light itching on the stomach can be quite common in early pregnancy. Your skin is stretching and changing, so it's natural. Just make sure to keep your skin well-hydrated with a good moisturizer. But if the itching becomes really intense or spreads, please tell your doctor immediately, okay? Just to be safe.
Yes, actually a mild itch can be pretty common in early pregnancy as your skin starts stretching. It also could be due to increased blood flow or dryness. However, if the itching is severe, especially on your palms and soles, or constant, it's always best to mention it to your doctor just to rule out anything serious like cholestasis.
Yes, many women experience some itching as the skin stretches to accommodate the growing baby. My grandmother used to tell me to apply coconut oil for it. But if it's very severe or bothering you a lot, then it's always good to check with your doctor, my dear. Don't worry too much, but don't ignore it either.
Oh god, early pregnancy itching, I remember that! Now in my third trimester, my whole body is an itch-fest, especially the belly. It's like my skin is protesting the expansion plan. Moisturize, moisturize, moisturize is my mantra now, and try not to scratch too hard!
