Really itchy tummy!

My tummy is really itchy!!!!!!!!!!!!
It started last night and has continued into today. Now, I know that it is probably just the stretching of my skin and the fact that it's really hot in Brisbane at the moment but it's driving me NUTS!
I've read up on that OC condition and I am pretty sure it's not that because the itching is just localised to my tummy and no-where else.

Any advice from those who have the same?
Thanks in advance

yeah thats normal hun try rubbing something like bio oil or a good moisturiser and drink plenty of fliuds to keep your skin hydrated :hug:

I had that too as my tummy stretched. Moisturise moisturise moisturise....

Cocoa Butter Massage cream for stretch marks helps - i think it is the Vitamin E cream in it.

Coco Butter is the best I have tried (as my tummy was having some serious stretch issues) I will say (and possibly cause its my skin) I dont have many stretch marks, BUT when I scratch they get bigger and worse...and when you put it on give the belly a really nice long massage it helps

Hi there...

Not sure if its the same thing but I had this with my last pregnancy! I didn't get stretch marks, it was just one of those weird things... I ended up with Calamine lotion plastered all over my belly and having Pinetarsol Baths which helped a little but it basically didn't go away until I gave birth!! Theres also an Oatmeal moisteriser which takes away itching you can get from the chemist!!

I hope its not this because it drove me insane but give it all a go anyway!!

Annoying but normal:) mine itchs too when its hot its bad ..

i rub bio oil and body butter into my belly twice a day it does help..

Unless the itching is also in ur hands and feet and other places its all good ..

Try rubbing things into it each day to keep it moist and supple it wont stop it for good but it will help

Thanks for all the suggestions guys, I do moisturise each day - I think that it might have something to do with how hot the weather is at the moment here in Brisbane, I was quite itchy last night and this morning, but it's kind of eased off now.

Thanks!
