Yup, I am 33 weeks now and it is driving me up the wall ! Feels like it's been going on for weeks now and one night actually kept me awake as it was itchy to the point of pain..grrr. The only thing I've found that helps is to liberally apply Lansinoh, does seem to help ease it a bit.
Jayfer - I have had it through out the whole of my pregnancies but I have days where they are ok and others where the itchiness doesn't seem to go. Its so lovely being pregnant grin

Oh thank goodness it's not just me! I'm now trying to find interesting and inventive ways to give them both a good scratch whilst out in public.
Lizzie - when does it ease off? I'm 16wks.
Hi, I had this last night and it was driving me mad. I have had in previous pregnancies to so nothing to worry about, its just really horrible.

Well, only one itchy nipple. Almost all the time, my right nipple itches. It is driving me crazy, and I can't scratch it because it then hurts. It is getting to the point where I have to keep cold eye masks in my bra. Really weird feeling. Anyone else had this? I am 19 weeks pregnant and my DH is too scared to hear about women's problems.
