Just had a bath, and now my boobs are like really itchy. Which is weird, coz I didnt wash them with soap or anything, coz I found that it irritated my skin.

Is there a reason for itchy boobs? Has anyone else had really itchy boobs? Is there anyhting (cream etc) that I can use too stop the itching?

Yes, I have that too, especially after taking a shower. Don't scratch no matter what! I usually put shea butter or cocoa butter (the one I use to - hopefully - prevent the strechmarks) on, that works fine... Just a little bit of olive oil should work too...

Ooo thanx, i'll go dig out my cocoa butter :) maybe I should start using it on my stomach again, might help erase some stretch marks.

Unfortunately it won't "erase" them, but maybe prevent further marks... But it on your breasts, tighs, booty, and all other body parts which are likely to strech...
