Is itching skin normal during pregrancy?
YES IT IS ...THAT'S UR SKIN STRETCHING AND IT'S DRY... MAKE SURE U KEEP IT MOIST OR UR GOING TO GET LOTS OF STRETCH MARKS.... ALSO TAKE SHOWER WITH WARM WATER NOT HOT.. IT WILL HELP WITH THE ITCHING..
Reply:Is it around your belly area? Because my belly ALWAYS itches like crazy. I use Tummy butter on it and it helps a lot. Otherwise any lotion should help ease the itchiness. Oh, and yes, it's normal.. you're fine.
Reply:very normal. i use baby oil in the shower and lotion through the day when i get an itchy spell. congrats!
Reply:Yes it is normal.Use lotion after you bath,it helps a lot
Reply:yes but DONT ITCH!! you will getr stretch marks
Reply:Occasional mild itching is normal, severe persistent or insatiable itching is a sign of a very serious condition called "cholestasis" and needs to be brought to your Dr.'s attention.
Reply:Yes it's normal. My belly sometimes itches. But what's worse is my boobs itch like hell!! I can deal with the tummy itching though. not too bad for me.
Reply:Don't worry it's normal. I'm only 1 month and Mines itching up a storm... I have scratch marks!! lol.
Reply:Everything is stretching, yes, it is normal.
Reply:Very normal.


Apparently it is something to do with your liver (?)


But it is perfectly normal and most people get itchy skin during their pregnancy, particularly later on :)
