1095404 tn?1333992839 Hey guys another question for you! Anyone else experienced itchy skin in pregnancy? Im 18 weeks and its driving me crazy!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Avatar f tn today is actually my due date for my first child. I had him at 20weeks. He was stillborn. So im pregnant again and my skin is really itchy. I haven't changed soaps or detergent In at least a yr. I didnt experience this with my first pregnancy. I was just wondering if this is normal?
Avatar f tn Im on to my 4th pregnancy. So I know about the hole pregnancy glow great skin thing. Though this time I have incurred a rash on both my brest and some strange painfull markings on my back. Has any one ever experianced this kind of thing. Just wondering ifit could be related to the pregnancy?
Avatar n tn It's probably a result of the hormones, which can do that (happened to me with both of my pregnancies). Depending on where you are in pregnancy, there are a couple of other things it could be, but I'd talk to your doctor.
Avatar f tn I had the same thing its a very rare pregnancy condition more common towards the end of pregnancys but if happens in early pregnancy can be dangerous. The only cure is delivery. They induced me at 38 weeks because of this. Everyone kept telling me it was allergies or pregnancy itch and i was soo fed up and exhausted (because i couldnt sleep) i researched and found info about this and my mom n bf thought i was google crazy lol.
Avatar f tn Itchy skin is normal, however if the palms of hands and soles of feet are itchy or have a rash it could be Obstetric Cholistasis. Which is treated usually with medication and Vit K. Its due to the pregnancy. Call your doctor and have him check it out. No reason for alarm.

I know dry skin can be a part of pregnancy but it's driving me nuts...pls hlp!
Avatar m tn Restless Leg Syndrome is associated with kidney problems, pregnancy, and iron deficiency. And you don't have to be anemic to be low enough on iron to experience RLS. If you have restless legs, you should have your serum ferritin checked: This is a measure of body iron stores-not just your hemoglobin and hematocrit, which is what doctors test for when they suspect anemia.
Avatar f tn I was itchy all through the first tri.
Avatar n tn Reason I ask is that I know that having a new baby causes much stress and major changes in routine and schedules, and sometimes results in mommy not taking as good care of herself then she is used to (possibly holding your urine longer, eating less, sleeping less, more caffeine, less water etc). Make it a habit to drink at least 8 glasses of water a day and see if it changes. It could also just be stress related.
Avatar f tn Yes my first pregnancy I didn't break out but this one it has been horrible I get bumps everywhere now on my neck shoulders and along side of my chin I went to the dermatologist but ofcourse since I'm pregnant she couldn't give me anything or do anything about it until I give birth so you kind of just have to deal with it until you give birth and then you should go see the dermatologist if it's bothering you still
Avatar f tn I was wondering the same thing its not super itchy and I don't have a rash or anything but I get itchy for no reason and in random spots its not normal for me so it bothers me and I also worry of the liver condition but I mentioned it to my ob and she didn't seem concerned at all so idk I'm 27w5d don't really know what to do or think
Avatar f tn If you've missed two periods a home pregnancy test would be accurate in confirming pregnancy. Symptoms aren't reliable in predicting pregnancy.
Avatar f tn Im 21 weeks and have experienced itchy skin no bumps except for a few and they only pop up when i scratch hard has anyone else had this problem?
Avatar f tn I was literally just complaining about this to my fiance lol. My skin has been really itchy. Ill be 19 weeks tomorrow. The one thing that has helped a little is Johnsons baby lotion. I put it in the fridge for a few mins to get it cold, its really relieving. Hope this helps!
