This is VERY common...It is just your skin stretching to a bigger size...Keep lots of lotion on it and try Palmer's cocoa tummy butter...I used this and it keeps your stomach very moisturized AND it feels great rubbing it on...:)

It is very common for your belly to itch when you're pregnant from all the stretching your skin does. Take a warm bath or shower and rub lotion on your belly while it is wet. Make sure you keep your belly thoroughly moisturized throughout your pregnancy and you'll be less likey to itch so much.

OMG I had the same thing happen towards the end of my pregnancy and it drove me insane (I actually took to scratching my belly with a hair brush). My Dr told me it to take Benadryl, but after wards I read that Benadryl wasn't safe to take in the last trimester. Ask your OB what they think is safe for you.

I have 4 children and a few different symptoms with each of them, just like each child is different. yes I got the itcy tummy too. I would take a bath/shower.

yes, what the first lady said, and also start now, and use something for stretch marks, use it all through your pregnancy.

each pregnancy is individual.
Use a stretch mark cream.
