Mine is continuing to get worse, driving me even more nuts if thats possible. through the day its mostly bareable but at night....OMG.... you can rest assured that come 7.30pm i'll start to itch and by 9.30pm i'll be sat in a pile of skin. Somehoe it seems to be tied in with when bubs is active and it'snot always the same place either, last night it was my back and bum, by the time i went to bed it was my thighs. This morning it was my bump and my arms again. the really horrid part is that the bits where it started have gone all dry and spotty now, like coarse sandpaper, i have to walk like John Wayne until i get my pants on, there is no way i could wear a skirt:eek: My favourite time is in the morning, i can wake up and know that so long as i don;t move i wont itch, so i'll lie there with a pillow between my legs and the doona tucked all round me so no skin is touching any other skin and it's bliss, then as soon as i sit up all hell breaks loose I did get a script from the doc for antihitamines but the pharmacist told me only to take them if i really really have to as they airnt good for the baby and i'll become reliant on them to get through the itciness, so it's back to good old scratch and bear it again.
BTW i don't think mine is heat related as i have jsut been down the beach for a walk with the dog and am sweating like a pig, no itching
