Postpartum itching
Did anyone have itching all over their body? If so, for how long did they last and what helped get rid of them?

Yes it is a side effect of the epidural/spinal block. Mine only lasted a few hours, treat it with some antihistamines as recommended by the hospital x
Yes I had this on my arms and legs. My legs so bad I’d itch until they bled. I think made worse from the compression socks. Midwife said this was normal following the spinal of c-section. I put moisturiser on and tried best to resist it. I am now 4 week PP and it’s definitely better but not 100%

I had itching immediately after my section on my body but especially my nose. It didn't last long after my medication wore off. I think it's a side effect of the epidural.
