    I've never had this problem while being pg. My stomach itches so bad, I'm starting to leave marks!! My skin isn't dry I use a moisturizing body wash and one of those in shower body lotion. And, I'm drinking tons of water, and I'm taking daily allergy tablets to avoid any allergies.

    Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. ;D ;D

    :hug99: to you. I know exactly what you are going through. The only comfort I could find was in an oatmeal bath, but make sure it isn't too hot. Also, the aveeno lotion worked well for me.

    I hope you feel better soon!

    I itched so bad (but not just my tummy...from head to toe!) my sister bought me a bath brush, and I would just sit in the tub and brush brush brush. It was the only time I found relief!

    I'm with you...but it's not my tummy...yet... I think it's an allergy thing for me. but I have yet to find a lotion that makes it go away.

    how funny i thought i was the only one. i lay down at night and it hits me all over i feel like i am gonna scratch my whole body off! during the day i itch but i guess i notice it most at night just cause i am trying to sleep. glad i am not alone! i like the idea of a bath brush!

    i can commiserate, but haven't found anything that soothes the itchiness.

    i'll try the aveeno, though.

    I had the same problem and started using Aveeno body wash and moisturiser. It has been Godsent!!! I would suggest using the cream formula rather than lotion. Now I need to find a way to get rid of the marks I made after the babies come <_<
