Itching in early pregnancy

[HaggisNeepsTatties]

Hi everyone!
I'm 6+5 and for the last few days I've been suffering with horrendous itching...mainly in the evening and when I go to bed...it stops me getting to sleep. I'm getting it on my legs, stomach, boobs, head, chest...

Anyone else had this? Did you find anything that helped?

Thanks!

Yeh, the pregnancy itches! I reckon its just because your skin is stretching and the hormones. I get it everyday/night, legs, bump and back, drives me mad its like angry itches too which you cannot ignore, they demans your immediate attention lol. I would probably reccommend mouisturising, just to stop it getting dry as dry skin does get itchy.

Gosh - I hope the skin on my head isn't stretching! :)
Will try covering myself in Vaseline intensive care aloe vera and see if that helps.
Thanks!

Unfortunately its not an early pregnancy thing! I'm 30 weeks and sleep with a tub of emulsifying ointment by my bed so when
I wake up tearing my skin to pieces I can
Quickly apply. get your cream from the doctors youl go through soooo much of it and may as well make re most of your maternity exemption card . For me the best cream to use is one called baby bump, u get in in Wilkensons - only place iv ever seen it. Apart from that I'm a tub of emulsifying ointment and a tub of aqueous - both used probably about 6 times a day! Oh and add baby oil to the bath it helps as well!
