Good morning everyone!! Question: is anybody else's belly itching like crazy??? I wanna scratch so…

lotion!!

@kristandley, I use cocoa butter everyday.

I always use the Eucerin lotion that says for very itchy skin or something. it has a teal colored lid at the drug store!

@liveitwithlove, does that help at all??

@jellybeanz, yes! I love it! it's a little on the pricey side (like $8 or something) but it is a life saver for me. I get really dry skin everywhere on top of itchy belly its a savior.

Scratching your belly doesn't cause more stretch marks. That's an old wives tale. Stretch marks are genetic. If they run in the family you will have them. But you can soften them and help your skin feel less irritated my keeping it moisturized

yes I be very itchy

I just put lotion on every time that I feel itchy and it helps it go away.

@jellybeanz I was just asking my midwife yesterday about what to do about itchy skin and she said drinks lots and lots of water 100 oz. a day! that will help. I didn't know itching worsened stretch marks though. also coconut oil!! I use it in the shower when I'm done with everything else it's the last thing that goes on me and it moisturizes so good especially around the nipples if you suffer from really dry skin on them like I do! good luck girlie :)
