My stomach itches so bad!!! I use
palmers cocoa butter massage lotion but it
don't work... I still have stretch marks
and now I am getting red dots and I itch
like h*ll!!!! Should I stop using the
stuff??? Anyone else have a really itchy
belly? I am 33 weeks and it didn't start
itching until last week... Do you think I
may be allergic to the lotion or maybe its
just irratating it bad... I can't take it
anymore!!!

my belly has been itchy lately too, but I

I
thought I was just the only one. My
stomach has been itching me recently for
the past three weeks. I used to think it
was just dry, but even when I lotion it.
It stills itches after..

My tummy itches a lot too and now so do my
breasts. :( I use cocoa butter and
lotion and it helps a little but not much
and not for long. The worst part is the
itching in my breasts. At school and
other places I can sort of scratch my
tummy by just rubbing it, but I sure can't
do that with my boobs. Everyone says
it's from my skin stretching, so all I can
think is it's gonna keep stretching thru
my whole pregnancy and then it's like omg
does this mean i'm gonna keep itching like
this from now til may?? I love knowing
i'm pregnant, but there's a lot of things
like that i'm not fond of. Lol

The streatching of your skin is what makes
it itch. Don't scratch!!!!!!! That will
make your streach marks worse, or give you
some! :)
