Today I am suddenly itchy all over, have just had a bath in pinetarsol and covered myself in aqueous cream but it hasnt helped at all. My feet have also tripled in size today - have had no swelling until now. Should I be worried or typical late pregnancy issues (didnt have either with DS1)

Isnt itchiness a sign of that liver condition... cant remember the name. Wouldnt think swollen feet is good either. I would get checked out ASAP!

Itchy tummy is one thing (skin stretching) but to be itchy as well as having swelling in your feet it would pay to get to contact your midwife asap. Let us all know how you go.

The liver condition is Obstetric Cholestasis and can be very serious (speaking from personal experience). I would get onto your midwife a.s.a.p. just in case.

The itchiness has pretty much gone today other than my HUGE bump. Have spoken to midwife today about things and we are just keeping an eye on things at this stage
