Have you been checked for obstecic choliostasis? Itching is the main symptom, not wanting to panic you but if the itching isn't going away it's worth getting it checked. I currently have it and it was only my bump that itched.

Could also be something called pupp which is like an allergy in late pregnancy

You need to speak to your midwife. You will probably need a blood test to check liver function. I had similar symptoms and it almost drove me insane! My liver was fine and I never found out what caused it, but it was really awful.
In the meantime, Aveeno oatmeal bath products helped me.

If is PUPPP I’m guessing you’re carrying a boy...
