Re: Can't stop scratching!
I just lathered in a thick lotion and I'm still itchy! Maybe I can get DH to massage the lotion on me.

Re: Can't stop scratching!
Holly I am sooooo with you on this one. Just itchy everywhere and nothing is doing the trick. I tried to lotion, took a shower with oatmeal bath stuff, you name it and it isn't helping!
This is one symptom I hope disappears for us both and PRONTO!

Re: Can't stop scratching!
I just read yesterday that if you are terribly itchy, you should call your dr because you could have PUPPS. I hope you get relief soon!

I've been itchy lately too. I use the Palmers cocoa butter oil spray. It works wonders! XOXOXO BOTB

Definately keep lotioning up. I remember I was so itchy that from scratching I wound up bruising myself. Cool showers and lotion was the only thing that helped.

Re: Can't stop scratching!
another thing that helps me is baby oil when I get out of the shower and my skin is damp, it really helps me with all of the itching!

Re: Can't stop scratching!
I have PUPPS and you will see an actual rash if you have it. Otherwise just a normal pregnancy symptom-you can try aloe vera. We can also use cortizone

Re: Can't stop scratching!
I had extreme itchiness (no rash) with my last two pregnancies. The doctor couldn't find any cause for it, I even had blood tests, and said it was just one of those things. I used Sarna lotion and found it helped me to take lukewarm showers whenever the itchiness was out of control. But nothing *really* helped until I had the baby!
I'm hoping it doesn't happen this time!
Hope you feel better soon.

Re: Can't stop scratching!
Thanks ladies.
Definitely not dehydrated. My skin continues to itch. It's really attractive watching me try to find ways to scratch my boobs while in public!
Hopefully the itchiness goes away soon. Otherwise, I may scratch my skin off and baby P*star will be cold.
