Ugh I don't know what to do. I was up alllll night with extremely itchy feet. Like nothing relieved the itch I took Benadryl and it eventually made me fall asleep but not relieve the itch. So of course I google. And on one hand Google stars pregnant people are just itchy and its normal and nothing to worry about and then on the other hand itchy feet is a symptom of a liver problem ( obstetric cholestasis) that can occur during pregnancy and if left untreated or undiagnosed it can lead to a still birth and other crazy things. In order to diagnose it you need blood work. If I m call my OB I MIGHT be able to get in today but maybe not. it would take a week to get the blood work back as well and at that point I could already have gone into labor. But if I go to the er today I would know immediately. Idk if I'm being like over crazy about it cause I googled and out these thoughts in my head but it's not as rare as they make it seem and I would rather not risk the life of my child but at the same time what are the odds that a really healthy pregnancy turns into to something like that? What do y'all think ?

Just call in and ask a question, they always have time for that, try not to stress out, Google usually says any of my symptoms to anything, means cancer, it always jumps to the worst thing. but call for sure to ease the worry!

Yeah I know that with googling symptoms it's always worse case scenerio. Yet at the same time NOTHING makes the itch stop so I'm like going crazy lol. I think I'll call my OB office and just see what they suggest I do. Regardless I need some relief lol @jessicahartze

Yeah, that's really the best thing to do, relief from itching and relief that its probably nothing. maybe an allergic reaction to something, or maybe you're just oddly really itchy.
