From about a week ago my tummy is so so itchy, I moisturise every morning and have pretty much no stretch marks on my bump. Anyone else getting itchy bump this late on?

Have you told your midwife and had a blood test? There’s a liver condition that presents as itchiness that is serious so pls call and get it checked out

@Nightmanagerfan completely forgot to mention it when I saw her yesterday which is annoying. Haven't had bloods done recently, but urine came back fine if that shows anything up? Or is it only blood test?

You need to speak to someone and get checked for OC. It doesn't normally present on the tummy but still get checked.

It's likely just your skin stretching, mention to the midwife to be on the safe side but I wouldn't worry unduly.
Try to drink lots and lots of water, a warm shower can also soothe itching
