what kind of lotion have you been using?
If not cocoa butter, then try it A TON of it right after you shower put on a ton of it and then again before bed or throughout the day. I've been using palmers but bath and body works has a good one too, its called Mega Butter and its in a little tub. Now with it getting colder also its gonna get dryer.

Re: My SKIN is sosososo ITCHY!!
my doc said to make sure the shower water wasnt too hot--- b/c afterwards it makes you itch more-- that and to drink more fluids!!

Re: My SKIN is sosososo ITCHY!!
So itchy too. I have found that baby oil right after the shower helps as a first layer, and then I heat up coco butter from the body shop in the microwave for like 20 sec.(separate container) and apply it warm. It really helps although it's a production. In the morning I find I have to reapply the coco butter again.
Winter is a cruel time to be pregnant because of the itchyness, but I guess it's better than summer sweatyness!

Re: My SKIN is sosososo ITCHY!!
For all you itchy moms out there just be careful its just due to the winter weather etc not pregnancy related itching...
There are two types that I know of - PUPPS more concentrated on the tummy area from what I believe
CHOLESTASIS - worse at night and especially concentrated on your hands and soles of your feet - this needs medical attention immediately if you have it.
any questions FM me as I had cholestasis.
