Itching happens during pregnancy. You should let your midwife k ow about how bad it is. Then she should be able to prescribe you something. I had it during my pregnancy and my midwife told me about the right creams to use.

I dont know if it's the same thing, but when I was pregnant with my first, I developed a pregnancy rash on my belly only that was so bad I couldn't sleep at night. Mentioned it to my OB at the time and action was taken, so I would definitely talk to your doc!

something that kind of helped me was cold compress or straight up frozen veggies from the freezer lol, but try wrapping the frozen stuff in a towel or something to prevent burns

My belly is itchy but pretty sure it’s cause I have to give myself two shots a day of insulin.
