Itching in early pregnancy?

0 replies

I'm 7 weeks' pregnant and itching like crazy! I have been itchy for a week or so; it's worst on the back of my hands, underside of my forearms, and my shins. I also have patches on my hips, forehead, and underarms.

Any idea if this is common? I have asthma/eczema but the eczema is usually absent.

I switched to washing in bio about 8 months ago and haven't had a problem until now. I have occasional white/red tiny lumps where I have been scratching. I'm scratching in my sleep, have damage to my skin already and feel like I'm being driven crazy.

Any ideas please?
