Soaked in an oatmeal bath and put aveeno skin relief lotion on afterwards and I haven't been itching…

- I’ve never heard of an oatmeal bath, I just pictured someone throwing a case of Quaker Oats in a tub lmbo is the itching because your skin is stretching, or is it something else ?

@beccaaalynnn11 stretching, my Dr said it's PUPPPS just without the rash. And basically that's exactly what you do lol its literally oats (like Quaker Oats) stirred up in a warm bath lol

- Oh wow. Are you having twins this time ? That is too funny! I’ve really never heard that, but I suppose it makes perfect sense ! Did it help once you got in bed ?

@beccaaalynnn11 nope the itching is back and more intense than ever! And no having a baby girl this time. Had my baby boy 2 years ago.

- I scratch, I have to keep my nails super short because I’ll take skin off. I’ve always been that way though lol Well Congratulations! So do you put like an entire case in the bath ? This pregnancy is harder than my first. All around.

@beccaaalynnn11 I got the aveeno oatmeal bath packets from Walmart they are like $6, but if using oatmeal like Quaker Oats I use 1 cup and run bath to whatever amount I desire. And thank you! And I have no nails at all but I will still be ripping skin off if I don't control myself

I’ve always heard that’s where the stretch marks come from is scratching. Idk how true that is.

@damn.it.red I heard that too but I'm itching everywhere all over my body and i hardly have any stretch marks

@dianne1211, I didn’t get any with my first. I got them bad with my second.

@damn.it.red did the rash show up right away? And how far along were you when the itching started?

@dianne1211, around 24-25 weeks. I started using bio oil when I started itching. That seemed to help. And when I would start itching I would rub lotion all over my belly.

@damn.it.red well the itching started around 12 weeks but no rash has shown up so idk why my Dr said it's PUPPS. And nothing is helping it will soothe for maybe a few hours then come back even worse than before. I'm losing so much sleep because of this :(

@dianne1211, omg I couldn’t imagine. Oh also my stretch marks with my second didn’t show up until after I had her. And they were pretty bad.

@damn.it.red oh geeez I'm not looking forward to that lol stretch marks bother me lol not the look of them but how weird they feel when you run your finger across them. Literally it feels like ants crawling under my skin everywhere and it's driving me crazy!!

@dianne1211, oh I know. And I get these little bumps in mine and they drive my absolutely fucking crazy. They aren’t bad bad. I’ve seen a lot worse. But I just don’t like them lol.

@damn.it.red lol no kidding they suck!!

@dianne1211, my belly feels so ugly 😭😭
