Itchy Feet

I’ve had periods where my feet are really itchy. It’s not my whole foot and one foot is worse than the other. I’ve googled and had some quite scary results come back. Has anyone else experienced this? Is it anything to worry about?

Not foot but my left arm has been so itchy since last night and today too. Like my skin is irritated by something!! I thought it was just last night but it’s the same today too

but you have no rash? Sounds the same as me! It’s really bizarre. How many weeks are you?

My midwife told me that if I get itchy feet or hands to call her 😊 so I'd give them a ring to give you some piece of mind

It can be a liver issue that happens in pregnancy so I'd definitely call someone to get some checks done if needed

I had this during my last pregnancy, I had to have regular blood tests as it could be cholestasis, but they all came back fine so was nothing to worry about 😊 I think it's pretty uncommon but better to have it checked out than not x

I’m 21 weeks and started feeling itchy feet at night. I went to triage and they took tests and confirmed that I do not have cholestasis which I was worried about. They prescribed a topical mental cream for when I need it and they also prescribed tablets to be taken off the cream doesn’t work and it gets worse. Call your Triage hun.
