ITCHY belly!!!!

Logan is not here yet (....2 days late now) and every day my belly feels even more itchy!!!!!!!

Anyone have this problem?  I'm putting lotion and even oil on it but I can NOT stop itching!!!!

Re: ITCHY belly!!!!

  • Oh god, I feel your pain!!  Not only does my stomach itch, but my ankles are itching too.  I feel like I could itch them for days- as if I'm never going to get relief.  This is definitely one symptom I cannot wait to get rid of!

  • Is it Pupps? My doctor ended up giving me a prescription lotion for it. Luckily, it goes away almost immediately after you deliver. At least it did for me. Hang in there!

  • YEP!! My belly itches like crazy too. I find that it helps when I wear low cut pants instead of full panel. Some of the panels make the itching worse. I try to rub instead of scratch but it is hard!!

    Hope we have our babies soon and stop the itching!! Big Smile

    This. It's probably PUPPS and like pp said it goes away after you deliver, but it's hell until then. Benadryl and  and hydrocortisone are what my doctor told me to use and it helped so much.
