Coco Butter works well for stretching belly skin and minor irritations. If it continues go and see your doctor. It will make you feel better.

I'm 39 weeks and I am experienceing a lot of itching on my belly as well...I have develop a horrible rash...I called a doctor last night and was told to take Benadryl...you can also use a Benadryl spray or cream...I am using both a cream and taking a pill....now for me it has had no effect...but it may for you. I tried all sorts of creams and moisturizers and they did not work including cocoa butter. But best of luck! I hope your's doesn't get as bad as mine!

I had those and know how bad they itch. My OB/GYN told me what to take that helped but that was back in 1967. I won't say what it was because it might be considered unsafe nowadays.
Since tomorrow is Monday, just hang in there and call your doctor first thing in the morning for his good advice. Do not take ANY medication that your doctor has not prescribed for you because it could hurt your baby.
Good luck, sweetie, and try not to scratch your belly.

i got that a lot during pregnancy. it's your skin stretching/tightening.
make sure you are drinking all your water, and also, bathandbodyworks makes a really great bodybutter for stretchmarks...even if you don't have "stretchmarks" it is super moisturizing and smells yummy, too!

Call your doc's office they will let you know what to use to relieve the itch.
