Why itching on stomach during pregnancy?

Question

Around 6 months now and my pet itches so much esp at night, mushkil ho jata hai to sleep. Is it just the skin stretching ya something to worry about? Anyone else getting this?

I used to scratch like a monkey while holding a feeding bottle! Just use cold aloe vera gel, don't scratch with nails or you'll get stretch marks.

Oh I remember that crazy itch, it used to drive me mad! It's just your skin stretching, try bio-oil or gentle cream.

Haan na, bahut itching hoti hai especially in third trimester. Cold press lagao aur touch wood, scratch bilkul mat karna.

Beta, skin stretch hone se aisa hota hai. Dry bilkul mat chhodna, safe cold pressed mustard oil ya coconut oil lagaya karo.

Humare yahan bolte hain baby ke baal aa rahe hain isliye khujli hoti hai. Thoda nariyal tel lagao, bahut aaram milega.
