My belly and arms are itching like crazy esp at night, third trimester chal raha hai. It's getting hard to sleep yaar. what helped you get some relief? planning to mention it to my doc also.
Itching is very common as the skin stretches, dear. Gently apply some virgin coconut oil and try not to scratch with your nails to protect your sensitive skin.
Itching can sometimes happen if your skin is dry, but if you have gestational diabetes, keep your diet clean and skin moisturized. Also, check with your doctor if it's severe.
What if it is cholestasis? I was so scared of itching because I read about liver issues, so please tell your doctor if it's too much on your palms and soles.
I felt like scratching my skin off in my third trimester, it was so irritating. Applying chilled aloe vera gel from the fridge was the only thing that calmed my skin.
