And dear Mums-to-be out there, anyone also has terrible itchy skin? I have naturally dry and clear skin, I have a few pimples on my face but the skin on my legs have been so itchy that when I scratched it became so raw and sensitive...
Yeah mines the same! It's awful😩 haha my arms are bad at the moment having to use steroid cream very thinly! Yes my legs go the same I feel your pain! Haha I can't remember what it's called now I'll have to grab some more off my doctor and let you know but I only use it if they're really bad as i hate sticky legs too! Aveeno is supposed to be really good for dry skin I've been told recently so I'm going to go and grab some as its all natural ingredients and not chemical! Try aveeno out!xx
@bl1995, I have dry skin by nature, and since the weather has been cold, my skin becomes worse, but never been this bad that I have to scratch like a monkey. now my legs are literally red from rawness. what kind of vaseline do you use? I have the petroleum jelly kind but I use that mainly for face and lips since it's sticky. don't fancy sticky body lotion or cream. 😂
Is it eczema or just a bit of dry skin? I have eczema and it's got worse since being pregnant, I have ointment that's just like vaseline that I tend to use when they flare up as I itch until my legs burn😩 haha I'm sure the doctor will prescribe you something suitable if it's causing irritation! Xx
Ah, thank you for the reply @becca2716 . I'll try one of those since I'm paranoid with skin care products; read articles about anti ageing products that can cause birth defects.. so I'm quite worried haha
I've changed my bath oil to sanex zero and shower gel sanex zero which has helped a bit, I was using palmers coco butter in the spray can as it was cold and soothing but now I've got zero base from doctors and its soothed the itching at the moment X
Thank you @becca2716 and @nicolespellman92 . My legs are so itchy that I decided not to use any kind of soap. do you use any creams at all to relieve the itch?
I'm 32 weeks and my skin on my legs, thighs, bum🙈 and bump is so so dry I've tried everything! I wake up in the morning with scratches all over me where I've scratched so much in the night as I'm so itchy and sore :( I've been to doctors today and have now got cream that I wash and can put on after to so hopefully that helps. Maybe if it doesn't improve go doctors and get some cream on prescription X

Raptor is doing GREAT!! He is off of everything (as you can see :)) except for a feeding tube and an IV!! I got discharged today so I could get to my baby boy! I got to hold him skin to skin and it was the most amazing thing I have ever experienced.
Omg my skin is super itchy .
So Dr has sent me in to do labs because I mentioned to him how itchy I’ve been these last couple of days. Any other moms gone through this before? He mentioned if something came up in my blood we’d have to do my section sooner than what it is scheduled for.
Good morning ladies. Sorry I been ignoring yall but I have been so miserable the past days I'M STILL PREGNANT my contractions would be strong for hours and it looked like I was gonna have a baby then everything just stopped so I got sent home. they said I have to wait till my appointment Wednesday so I can talk to my doctor about the next step. I HATE THIS 😢😢😩
