Itchyyyy

I’m 37 weeks and this has just started on my boobs so if you find an answer pls let me know 😭😭😭😭😭

If it’s your hands and feet you need to speak to your midwife

mines is hands and feet.. why is this a worry?

it’s potentially a sign of ICP. Not always but it’s worth saying to your midwife to take some bloods and that will check. I had itchy hands and feet but my results were negative and it eased after a week or two x

I was prescribed antihistamines when I had this and aquasoothe cream. The antihistamines made me so so drowsy though 🥲 x

I’m on 120mg of fexophenadine I can’t be on any higher of an allergy tablet right now and I use aqua sooth everyday because of my eczema and I’m still clawing my nips off 😭😭😭x

Hi maybe try to not lotion up after taking a bath/shower and I have realised that a cooler room temperature helps because sweat or overheating adds to the itching

I had the same and have been diagnosed with IPC so please call midwife! I am being monitored and have bloods taken every 2 days. They have given me some cream also which really does help
