Hi everyone wondering if anyone can give me any advice. I’m 26 weeks and the past two night the tops of my feet have been really itchy and then spread up my legs accompanied by a red rash and then in the morning it’s gone!

It’s starting again just now and is so itchy is it best to see a doctor or is there something I can take it’s really uncomfortable 😣

Thanks for reading xx

OP, not to cause concern but have you mentioned this to your midwife?

Itchy legs can be a symptom of IC which requires attention.

Hi Hun. I'm 20 weeks pregnant and I got this with last baby.
I had zero base prescribed by my doctor it helped massively. It's a thick emollient cream. It will be itching from basically skin drying out. Don't be surprised if it gets worse and red
Try avoid perfume products and drink loads of water. Having a girl by any chance? Apparently they drain your beauty lol, she will be very well nourished whilst you're literally drying out! Hope this helps
