    I don't have itchiness on my boobs but I have itchiness of everywhere else because of medical reason.  I use aloe vera natural gel and it helps. I got it from walmart.

    I find that lotion makes the itchiness worse... too much moisture?  I have been using baby powder, and it has helped a lot.  Maybe it will work for you too. GL!

    stay away from super hot showers. They actually suck the moisture from your skin. Warm to cool showers will take away some of it.

    Oatmeal bath.  At least, that was the only thing that worked for me when I had PUPPS.

    Be careful scratching in your sleep. My left boob itches at night. I was in a coma Tuesday after days of not sleeping. I started itching and scratched too hard or something. I ripped a mole off. I felt it and registered what happened but fell back to sleep. When I woke up, I had bled everywhere. Ugh!

    Hi :) I'm having the same problem but only on my left boob + nipple (weird) I ended up buying my nipple cream early and putting that on. Works for me!

    Having the usual pregnancy rash on my belly too and the gynae gave me good old simple Calamine lotion which can be applied 3-4 times daily. Works like a charm.
