Stomach itching!

edited February 2011 in Pregnant
I am 16 weeks and my stomach has been itching a lot. There is no redness or inflamation of any kind, so I was wondering if it's due to my skin stretching? I have already been starting to show.

  • Probably. Itchy skin is really common in pregnancy, especially on the belly. You should start moisturizing after you shower, that will help a lot.
  • Yess its from skin stretching don't itch it it will cause stretch marks to be worse and scar worse
  • I would use palmers or bio oil
  • I've been using palmer's but guess I should apply it more frequently/liberally :) Thanks!
