Yes but it can be a warning sign, do tell ur midwife or obgyn about this on your next appointment.

Yes!! I had this for about 3 weeks before it finally went away. I had bloods taken which were fine and midwife prescribed an aqueous cream which helped to ease the itching for a little while.
Worth ringing the midwife to get checked. They’re mainly concerned if it’s hands and soles of feet as can be sign of pre-eclampsia but will also check bloods for liver function.
And keeping cool and wearing loose clothing, preferably cotton helped me.
