My tummy and arms itch so badly at night, i cant even sleep properly. Im in 7th month. Is this just dry skin or normal pregnancy thing? Pls share what helped u.
My app tracked that itching is common due to stretching, but warned about ICP if it's severe. I kept a bottle of oatmeal lotion handy and took lukewarm showers. Do mention it to your gynac at your next scan.
Ah, the scratching monkey phase! I used to carry a wooden spatula to gently pat my itchy belly because nails are a big no-no. Keep yourself moisturized like a glazed donut!
I felt so miserable with itching on my belly. I used to apply cold lactocalamine lotion and it gave me so much relief. But please make sure you don't scratch with your nails to avoid marks.
I am dealing with this itchy belly right now in my 6th month! Coconut oil helps for an hour but then it starts again. Are you itching all over or just on your stomach?
Actually, mild itching is normal because skin stretches, yaar. Just use a heavy moisturizer or pure aloe vera. But if it is itching too much on your palms and soles, tell your doctor immediately as it can be a liver issue.
