1st Trimester

Sensitive skin?

I'll be 6 weeks tomorrow, and my skin is freaking out. Sheets and clothing feel scratchy (especially on my nipples but elsewhere too), I'm needing more lotion on my legs, my face is breaking out, and my crotch is sensitive too, not in a good way. : Panty elastic is more irritating, and shaving stubble down there feels itchier than ever. I don't feel puffy there, like women report in the last few weeks of pregnancy...just irritated.

Anybody's skin more sensitive in the early weeks? What are you doing about it?

Re: Sensitive skin?

  • Same here.  I'm pimply on my chest and back and itchy all over.  I haven't found any remedy, just lots of lotion.

  • Try Aveeno body wash for sensitive skin. Helped for me at least a little, but hey, every little bit does help. Good luck.
