itching around the incision? Everyone gets that b/c it has to do w/ the skin healing.

I had it bad. I also had a slight yeast infection around my scar, so the doctor gave me anti-fungal powder. Afterwards, back to normal.

No that I have never heard of - unless it was right after delivery (most people get itching from the spinal or epidural that they give for delivery) - or unless they were having an allergic reaction to a medication they were taking.
DD#2 will be a month on 6/23 but I only have some minor itching around my incision which is normal.

I had that after the epi,but that went away--this is different-I dont know why I think it is related-I am going to call my doctor.
