Itchy armpits while breastfeeding?

Hello? I realise this is odd but.., anyone still breastfeeding and sometimes gets itchy in the armpits when baby is latched?

It only started a month or so ago so just really weird. It’s driving me crackers. I’m only doing morning and evening feeds now.

Omg yeah! But I've had it the whole way through 😂 it annoys me so much but it isn't there the whole time so I end up forgetting about it until I breastfeed again.
Never heard of it though so don't have any advice!

this is the thing, I looked it up and it’s very normal early postpartum, because your breast tissue can extend into your armpits so engorgement can provoke the itchiness. But I don’t know why it’s started now…
