  • I was like that with my last pregnancy. The doctor told me it was because of the blood flow and there was nothing he could do.
  • Ahhh oh no! Im only 5 weeks! I hope this doesn't last the entire pregnancy
  • I am the same way snreda
  • Coco butter helps a lot
  • I need to go buy some, lol
  • I feel like I just want to stay in the shower for the next 9 months, that's the only time I don't itch!
  • Gold bond medicated lotion ouryou can take over the counter benedryl to stop the itching..also try oatmeal baths..I swear by the lotion tho.good luck ( ;
  • Have you tried baby oil after a cool shower? Worked for me in my first pregnancy
  • No I haven't really done anything like that I can't stand being greasy! I just feel dirty. The gold bond lotion works but it makes me so cold and I can't heat up, that lotion really doesn't go well with 12° weather
  • Hmmm well maybe you could Google it sometimes they have home recipes that could help its worth a shot
  • The baby is taking all your water causing your skin to dry out. Drink more water.
  • Ok. I have coco butter oil from vaseline so I'm gonns try that too, my husband days I smell like a palm tree, whatever that means!
  • Ha ha ha drink lots of water. And try compression stockings. I get really bad varicose veins and itchy restless legs. The stockings help with the blood flow.

  • Lol my nipples and boobies itch tooo its not fun but still kinda funny because you can't just itch them anywhere... my belly itches sometimes but I heard if you itch it will give you more stretch marks...
  • Ha ha mine also. I don't think scratching can give you stretch marks. But it can't be good for your skin. One thing I invest in while preg is good lotion. Co co butter shea butter. And anything with lots of vitamin b. I lather up morning and night! Or any time I take a shower.

  • Vasaline coco butter cream for knees and elbows works great everywhere and it lasts all day
  • I feel all your pain. But its allover my body especially my back. I have acne all over. At first I thought it ws bedbugs but my dr said its not. Aveeno didn't work and neither does baby oil. I feel like a druggie, I'm always scratching!!!!
  • I hear there is a cream at bath and body works that help. I plan to get some asap!
  • Im itching as well. All over but the boobs has to be the worst.
  • Me as well but its the worst in my arm pits and legs lol I.can't take it any more!
  • Eucerin??? I love it...my whole face is shedding...its weird but with some neosporin at night and the lotion in the morning everyone gets to keep their lives at least for the day...damn hormones and body changes.
  • Yes. Eucerin anti itch is my new discovery.. its working great.. and water water water
  • Man my nipples itch soooooo bad its so awkward at work they would itch so bad and I would flick the through my shirt instead of reaching in there lol my Co workers were like Katie why are you flicking your nipples??
