    Itching Breasts
    Ever since I've gotten pregnant, by boobs have been itching really badly! I put that palmer's coco butter cream for preventing stretch marks on them everyday, and it help's for a little while, and then I'll be at work and I can't help but reach in my shirt and scratch because they itch so bad! Of course I do it when no one is looking, but just some advice would be great!
    Thanks

    I suffer from this too, I found that the cocoa butter stuff doesn't really work for itching. It is from your breasts growing in size and the skin stretching. I found that if you apply a cold compress it helps. Unfortunately that won't help much at work. I always just duck in the ladies room if it gets unbearable.. good luck

    LOL, you two!

    There is a cream called Eucerine. It comes in a tub and a tube. Get the one in the tub. Works wonders for almost any itch.

    Hey, I am 8 weeks pregnant and I have the same problem. I wish I had an answer for you but I am actually asking if you could let me know if you get any feedback! Thanks!
