    I know it sounds crazy but express some of the colostrom and rub it on the itchy parts. I have heard it works?

    I'd call my doc for something! Hopefully you do not have yeast on them!

    I agree with pp - maybe there is something more causing the itch.

    I use a thick blend of vitamin e oil, almond oil, shea butter, and cocoa butter - made myself, and that seems to really help mine.

    Sometimes the itchiness is caused by yeast. I make a cream of tartar paste to put on my breasts. Also now that my twins are born, I take 1 tsp of cream of tartar in a class of water per day to help control yeast.

    Goggle cream of tartar and yeast. I didn't take the cream of tartar while I was pregnant, but did make the cream for my nipples.

    Hope this helps you.
