Crazy uncomfortable

This is my second pregnancy and my gosh I am so uncomfortable. I do not remember being this uncomfortable with my first! I’ve suffered with itchy skin during this pregnancy which I’ve been prescribed cream for however tonight the cream is not touching it, my whole body aches, I cannot decide if I’m warm or cold and although I am absolutely exhausted I feel I cannot settle down. I’ve tried to settle in bed and on the sofa but unfortunately nothing is helping. Is anyone else suffering and if so, how are you getting comfortable and settling down?

I am ridiculously uncomfortable at the moment, I second the temperature issues keep waking up boiling and all the sheets off me. Wish I could say that I have found a solution but not yet 😔

I can vouch this as my second pregnancy I am constantly hot and cold and itchy skin sometimes I find having a lupe warm shower to help normalise my skin with gentle cream after but I have to also take antihistamines to help when it's at its worst

Yeah the itchy skin is really irritating I have to say glad I’m not the only one

I have exactly the same. The itchiness is really getting me down and stopping me from sleeping. I was given antihistamines but they don’t do anything most of the time. My whole body is sore from scratching but can’t stop myself scratching when I’m so itchy! I have a coolish bath at night and cover myself with Aveeno, although getting in and out the bath is getting hard and I have no idea if it is helping at all tbh but I feel like I have to try something! The itchiness is like absolute torture and I keep panicking what if it doesn’t go when baby is born? Honestly iI’ll end up jumping out the nearest window lol This is also my second pregnancy, I’ve found it sooo much harder than my first! I feel like I’ve had every crap symptom possible this time around! So not advice sadly sorry lol but just to let you know you’re not alone!

I was thinking this yesterday, I'm getting quiet itchy and thought I was the only one! My belly is the worse part
