Itchy Legs

[pezza.......]

Hi. Mrs Pezza is 33 weeks pregnant with our first child and is suffering with really itchy legs. Can anyone please give us a clue on how to stop this as it is stopping her relaxing so I am getting the blame (of course)!!! Thanks

Phew! so glad all is well. Hopefully Mrs Pezza only has a few weeks to go, then the itching will cease.

Looking forward to hearing how it all goes upon the birth of little miss Pezza :o)

I had terribly itchy legs towards the end of my pregnancy,waking me up in the night,it was awful.Blood pressure & urine were fine at midwife appointment,just happened to mention itching,was sent for a scan & blood tests the next day,to find I had a rare form of pre-eclampsia,was immediately induced & gave birth to a healthy baby girl 10 hours later,I was quite poorly though & was on high-dependency unit for a while.
So my advice would be to tell your midwife everything no matter how small,as it could make all the difference.
