    Hi Agony,

    Saw your thread in the recent posts and came in. I am sorry, dont have any advice but just wanted to tell you I am so happy for you. I actually cant believe you are in your 7th month already :) Feels like just yesterday you posted about the BFP in our IUI thread. Time flies huh? :)

    Wish you loads and loads of best wishes and have a happy and safe pregnancy! :)

    It could be because of dryness or may be because body stretches at fast pace during three months. I used to have this itching from 5th to till delivery. My gyno suggested a cream. I was just applying olive oil3 times a day. So was not facing any itching . But it is always better to consult doctor first.

    Use bio-oil..works wonders but be consistent
    whatever you do,do not scratch!!
    stay hydrated
    Plus the doc isn't worried so you also stop worrying:)
    relax and wishing you all the very best!

    i had itching all over my body starting 7th month till 9th month. repeatedly liver tests were done luckily nothing bad came out. it was all good. had a safe and healthy baby who has a 'hemangioma'. I am not sure if that has anything to do with my itching.

    As far as understood .. my doctor said there is a condition called cholestasis of pregnancy/ obstetric cholestasis.
    It's a pregnancy induced problem.
    The hormonal imbalance raises the liver enzymes leading to itching. Many go unnoticed until jaundice flares up.
    But these days because of the increased awareness , liver function tests r done timely and the condition treated.
    It starts with itching on the body mainly on the palms n soles without rash.
    Worst at night.
    There is an excellent drug to treat this , so not worries.
    I hope this info can help someone :)

    Good day
