cholestasis in pregnancy ?

Little bit worried and I will go talk to the midwife in the morning. Symptoms have been slow to build over the last two weeks hence why I’ve not been to the doctors or phoned midwife yet but tonight it’s drove me insane . Symptoms so far Restless legs that makes feet feel hot Progressing to itchy feet/ankles Tonight my hands have been itching all night too. It’s rather intense so had to move into the spare bedroom as it’s waking up my husband with me itching. It can come an go if I’m lucky and try distract myself by reading/listening to meditation but relief doesn’t last long. Anyone else have experience with this?

i have! i mentioned it to my midwife and she sent me for a blood test to check my liver function, turned out it was icp. try piriton for the itching, or some menthol cream

Ok right, is that’s all they are doing for you or is there going to be any other follow up plan if you don’t mind me asking?

theyve put me in for weekly bloods, and if the levels of my liver enzymes come back high, they’ll induce me anywhere from a week to 3 weeks early, depending on the leveld

Ok hun thank you. I’m 36weeks today, I’ll give them a call and see if they’d be happy to do me a blood test.
