Itchy palms

in Pregnant after IF
Has anyone else experienced extremely itchy palms.  Since yesterday, my palms have been itching like crazy.  Just wanted to see if anyone else has had these symptoms during pregnancy.  I know that itching can be completely normal during pregnancy, but I also know that specifically itchy palms and soles of feet can mean something more serious.  Either way I have a call into the Dr, but I just wanted to see if I am alone in this. Thanks.

    I haven't had itchy palms, but my boobies itch like crazy! I've always been told that when your palms itch, it means you're coming into money Wink Good luck with that!

    We also glory in our sufferings, because we know that suffering produces perseverance; perseverance, character; and character, hope. And HOPE does not dissappoint.

    Yes, towards the end of my pregnancy with Brady I had such bad itching of my hands and feet I was itching patches of skin off of them. I had Cholestatis. Definitely talk to your doctor. They can do bloodwork to check your liver to see what's going on. Good luck. I know how annoying and painful it is.

    Cholestasis is what I was concerned about.  I just spoke with my dr. and they said try cold compresses and hydrocortisone cream initially.  I follow up with them on Tuesday.  If i am still itching by then, I am going to insist on getting bloodwork drawn.

    Yes, insist on bloodwork. I hope you can find relief from the compresses and cortisone.
