Default Itching on leg during pregnancy
Hi ladies,
I am pregnant and holding 8 month baby. In this month I am getting unbearable itching in my legs. The itching become so intense sometime that I scratch my leg for hours. I applied some natural things like baby oil andd moisturizer but nothing is working on me. Is this itching is normal during pregnancy or I should seek a doc. Please suggest some remedy to get relief from itching.

Regards
Tawana

You should wear loose cotton clothing as synthtic cloths can cause some itching on skin.
Applying baking soda paste over your leg where you are getting itch can give you some relief.
If these tips are not working, you should go to a doctor or skin specialist.

You can use Calamine lotion. It helpes me in skin itching. If the itching is due to dry skin, you should use moisturizers.

I also had itching problem during my pregnancy but it was mostly on my stomach. It was because of dry skin and applying coca butter at night helped me a lot in treating the itchiness of skin. You should avoid taking hot water bath as it makes the skin dry and increase the itchiness.

This is the reason that most of the doctors recommend and suggest the safety measures to avoid such type of the problems after the pregnancy.
