Itchy feet at 25 weeks?

Did anyone else have this? I just started about 2 days ago and I assume it's from swelling. I intend to talk to my OB about it at my next appt. but am now a little concerned because someone said it could be Cholestasis of pregnancy...

    Yes I had it and it was horrible!

    It is due to the swelling and stretching of your skin.  Use a really great moisturizer that really helps I put it on (actually dh put it on) at least 2 times a day.

    i itched like CRAZY when pg - and my legs are still very itchy now almost a month PP.

    the soles of my feet and palms of my hands started itching one day (i think around 22w) and lasted about a week.  My OB was not concerned - said that hormone fluctuations can cause it... thankfully it went away....

    but my calves itched the entire pregnancy- even with anti-itch lotion (it helped a little but not much). 

    then my belly itched- yet, it was numb from being so stretched so i couldn't feel when i scratched it! LOL

    Thanks - it's reassuring to know that both of you experienced itchiness without complications. I can deal with fighting the urge to scratch as long as everyone's A-OK :o)
