Your stomach is itchy because of the stretching. Try rubbing some extra-moisturizing lotion all over it!

Vitamin E oil will help, or anything with cocoa butter. Stay away from shower gel or soap if at all possible, or use very little and try not to scratch, it only makes it worse.

This is from the skin stretching - the best thing for it is thick moisturizer or oil - apply it ALWAYS when you get out of the shower or bath and apply it before bedtime and in the mornings. Hopefully this will help.

The itching is probably your skin stretching to accomodate your growing baby. Try cocoa butter or cold compresses to see if they ease the itch. If the itch is really bad and your shredding your skin, let your doctor know. He can prescribe creams and antihistamines that will ease the itch. Good luck to you!

try coconut butter its probably because of how our skin stretches. If you are farther into your pregnancy you should watch if you get itchy all over it could be due to liver failure.

When I was pregnant I used cocoa butter lotion, and it seemed to help, you don't want to itch it bad because it can cause stretch marks, don't use your nails to itch use your finger tips.

Are you scratching because of stretch marks?...or are you having itching because of hives?...talk with your doctor and see what you can safely take in pregnancy and have them look at your tummy.
