Anyone else really itchy?

My legs and feet seem to itch nonstop at night. It makes it hard to fall asleep! I wonder if it's from swelling? Anyone else experience this and have any tips? Even lotion doesn't seem to cut it...

Re: Anyone else really itchy?

  • Lotion may help that is really all I got.  And since I can not reach my feet, hubby has to put it on me.

  • My belly is super itchy!  Coco butter has helped some.

  • my god...it's my upper body that itches.  I got some Aveeno that has itch relief in the lotion. I've also had to take some Benadryl some nights.
  • ha, yeah, I am. I was telling mh yesterday that I can't stop itching.  I figured it was just dry skin.  I moisturize like a fool too!

  • Yes - me!  But mine is from a pregnancy induced rash.....been up since 3:15 and it is now 4:30.  I just want to sleep.  Benadryl helps to knock me out.  Lotion does nothing for this. 

    I highly recommend benadryl.  All of the OBs in my practice used it with their kids - and I did with DD1....works (usually) wonderfully to help sleep.

  • I get it from time to time. Lotion doesn't seem to help.. sometimes, of all things, baby powder does. 

    Worth a try!
