oh so itchy

[{sarah}]

Nae, is it everywhere on your belly or just in your stretchmarks? Do you have a rash at all?

Hi Nae - I sympathise with you. I have had extremely itchy breasts - they do seem to be getting a tad better though ever since I started wearing maternint bras. Moisturising also helps!!

no your not odd. im so itchy aswell
all over.
my face my boobs expecially my nipples and my belly..
oh my gosh i scratch all day lol

im use dermawash which is soap free and its helps and also using dove body bars.
no mositurisers tho as i forget

last time with tay i found the cocobutter good as its thick and lasts ages.

and i have to have cooler showers as the ehat makes it worse. and its affecting my sleep. lol

Hey Nae

I know this may sound weird, but with my itchy nipples I have expressed what little I can get out of my bb and rub into my nipples. It really helps. And on my belly I am currently using palmers coco butter - I hate the smell but it works. I only found it this pregnancy, last one I just put up with the constant itching! Oh and before I was using palmers I used the Alpha keri as well - and it worked also really well. You can find it in most chemists

Good luck!

I had a really itchy chest, neck & face when I was in my 2nd trimester with Harrison. I ended up having to take an antihistamine called Polaramine and a cream that I can't recall the name of. The polaramine was brilliant and in about 2 weeks the itchiness was all gone.
