Third trimester and my belly and palms are itching like crazy, especially at night. Is this just normal stretching skin wala thing ya something I should mention to my doc? anyone else faced this?
Itching can be due to skin stretching, but sometimes it is related to liver issues during pregnancy. Please mention this to your doctor in your next visit just to be absolutely safe.
I had itching too, and my doctor made me do liver function tests to rule out cholestasis, which is very important. Keep your skin hydrated with coconut oil, but definitely mention it to your gynac.
I felt so miserable with itching on my tummy in the third trimester. Moisturizing helped a bit, but I realized stretching skin is just tough. If it's all over your body, please ask your doctor.
Oh god, the stretching skin makes everything so itchy! Apply lots of coconut oil or moisturizer and don't stress too much. But if it's severe, just let your gynac know.
Please don't ignore severe itching, especially on hands and feet. I had a liver condition called ICP and had to be monitored closely. Please consult your doctor for a blood test to be safe.
Ugh, the belly itching is real! I feel like a bear scratching against trees. Applying cold aloe vera gel helps, but if your palms and soles are itching, call your doc immediately.
