Itchy Legs!!!! Aaargghh

Hi ladies,

I was wondering if anyone else is suffering from really itchy legs?

I am 20+5 and for the last few weeks have been driven crazy by the bottom of my legs itching. It eases when I moisturise but have to do it 2-3 times a day. I aren't shaving as much as I used to because I can't stand on 1 leg anymore because of the hip pain. So have to get a bowl and towels out in the lounge. Afraid this has meant I am only doing it twice a week and being a spiky beast the rest of the time. Isn't pregnancy glamourous?
If anyone has any tips then please pass them my way.

Are you sure it's from not shaving and couldn't be anything else? Itchiness can be a sign of liver issues.

Could you shave your legs in the bath?

Thanks japhrimel, I will mention it to the midwife on my next appointment.
Getting in and out of the bath is not fun at the moment.
