Itching
Feel like it's a bit of a random one but has anyone else had severe itching after their c section? I had my baby 4 weeks ago and for the last week / 10 days or so I feel like I could rip the skin off my legs. It only seems to be in the area of where my thigh tattoos are (both legs) but never had this issue before pre birth. It is driving me insane 😩

@Katie Louise I'm going to call the GP tomorrow and see if anything can be done because this is literal hell 🤣 sorry to hear you are still struggling with it 😢 xxx
@Jordin they gave me some cream and told me to take piriton which has actually helped! But if your breast feeding apparently can’t take it! I Hope You get it sorted xxx
@Jordin when i had my first a few years ago after a section, my tattoos (which i had for years prior - no issues), became so itchy and raised and some areas scabbed! All hormone related i believe, also going on the sunbed made it worse so i stopped that! I had to take antihistamine and use a steroid cream off GP. This time, post VBAC 5 weeks ago, skin has been fine! Hope you get sorted xx
