Itchy lower legs

[Rachx]

Anyone suffering from itchy legs? The last week or so my shins are itching so bad I could scratch them to death!!! As if itchy nips weren't bad enough!!! Any tips on how to sooth them?

I have had this since first trimester i hate it, i have to have a bath as soon as i start itching and it usually eases it x

Hiya, sorry to crash, but i would mention itching to your midwife as itchy hands and feet can be a sign of obstetric colastasis (Sp?). Not to panic as it is rare, but just to make you aware of it.

I have this too, have since the beginning.

I found that a combination of Aveeno Skin Relief lotion and hydrocortizone cream at morning and at night work wonders.

For some reason the Aveeno lotion is the ONLY lotion that does anything for me. I think I read on the bottle that it has coloital oatmeal in it so maybe that's it. Who knows! But it works for me.
