I read that a facial ice roller helps? I got a little itchy my third trimester and felt some relief when I rolled it on my pregnant belly? Hope you do, too!
You could try earth mama belly oil instead of lotion. It’s organic and good for sensitive skin.
Your skin is stretching and if it's too dry it gets itchy. Moisturize all day. I used the cera ve healing ointment and it helped alot, but any good, thick moisturizer will help. If the itching continues I would consult your doctor.
Lotion, oil, or body butter were the only things to help my itching from skin stretching! If you can’t do lotions give oil or butter a try, it’s worth it! I currently use a tallow and shea butter mix. But also bring this up with your OB because itching can be a symptom of cholestasis, usually of the hands and feet but still important to check out !
My belly itched soo much during my pregnancy with my daughter. Aloe Vera oil and coconut oil did so much wonders on my skin. I’d put it on before or after my shower depending on the day! But I also didn’t mind the lotions but I used body butter and it helped me a lot too
I read itching can come before stretch marks and my boobs we’re super itchy and then I got stretch marks - might not be anything you can do to prevent it - but I started lotioning after 😅😅
