3rd trimester ladies-skin stretching
I am noticing that at times, I can actually feel the skin on my abdomen stretching - like its being pulled from the top and the bottom at the same time. Anyone else feel this too? It's a weird sensation huh?

Re: 3rd trimester ladies-skin stretching
Absolutely a weird sensation!!! No amount of Cocoa Butter in the world can stop the itching-Which coincidentally started this weekend. ALSO, I'm noticing stretch marks-all of a sudden 
I hope they go away

Re: 3rd trimester ladies-skin stretching
Ive had this all throughout my whole pregnancy and even after I ate I was SOOOO uncomfortable I wanted to cry and jump out of my skin. The relief I found that worked best was lotion so after I ate, i would put lotion on on my belly and my back. It didnt help 100% but it gave some sort of relief and elasticity I guess. I always keep lotion with me and always apply it after a shower.

Re: 3rd trimester ladies-skin stretching
I'm not sure if you can use this in pregnancy but you can buy vitamin e oil. Also try to get Nutrogena body oil and put it on in the shower while still damp. That may help. After that dries put on your lotion.
I have an issue becasue when I had my ectopic last year they went through my belly button with a camera dn there us scar tissue there that I can feel getting moved as my uterus grows. I don't know how its going to feel later on!

Re: 3rd trimester ladies-skin stretching
I feel it inside and outside. Combine it with what I think round ligament pain might be and I am a joy to be with. Just yesterday I moved too fast and I seriously felt as if I tore my leg off at the bikini line.

Re: 3rd trimester ladies-skin stretching
do you think they are braxton hicks, cause my skin stretching goes away after 1 minute, and sometimes they come back

Re: 3rd trimester ladies-skin stretching
My skin burns from all the stretching. I found some stretch marks on my lower abs and hips but ironically that area does not hurt.
My stretching pain is by my ribs and I literally feel as if my abdomen wall is being torn apart.
Lovely!
