Lately mere pet pe thoda itching ho raha hai and i wasnt sure if its normal at this stage. Im around 26 weeks. Does khujli start in a particular month for everyone ya it varies? thoda curious bas.
Actually, mild itching on the belly happens in the third trimester because of stretching, yaar. Just use a heavy body butter and try not to scratch it with nails!
Please consult your gynac if you have severe itching on your palms and soles of your feet. It could be a condition called cholestasis, so don't ignore it.
I understand how annoying it is, especially when you're already dealing with so many physical symptoms. Keep a cold wet cloth on your belly, it really helps soothe the skin.
It's just your body making room for the baby, usually in the third trimester. Don't worry, but do mention it to your doctor at your next visit just to be sure everything is fine.
It mostly kicks in during the late second or third trimester when your skin is expanding. Buy a high-quality stretch mark oil and moisturize twice a day.
With twins, my belly stretched like a football in the second trimester, so the itching started early! It's totally normal, just don't scratch like a bear.
