Extremely itchy front of feet at night

[laurabmummyof3]

Help!!!!!!😩😩😩😩Every night for the last 4/5 nights, my feet are in extreme itchy agony. Not the soles, they are fine just the front of my feet. I've scratched so hard that the skin is broken and sore. I'm a little itchy on my back and arms too, but that's sorta underlying itchy and bearable. But my feet are so uncomy I could chop them right off. Any advice? I have no rash, skin not dry and I'm nearly 23weeks preg with 3rd baby!! Thanks in advance!👍🏻

You should tell your doctor and get your bloods checked. There's a pregnancy condition called obstetric cholestasis it might be. Don't worry, but always good to get these things checked out.

I used to get really itch feet at night when they were swollen. A cool flannel really helped. But also mention it to your midwife, just in case.

Thanks for advice ladies, I'll mention it to consultant - i have an appointment this afternoon. Ahhhhhh it's driving me loopy!!😩😩😂😩

Could they be getting a bit swollen by the end of the day? Mine are some days especially when it's warm.
If they are maybe try soaking them in some cool water and then rubbing in loads of moisturiser to see if that helps; I also have one of those cold water sprays which I find relieving to spray on mine.

Get some E45 itch cream - it's brilliant and available at all chemists.
