Hey ladies, I have had really itchy skin the past 3 weeks. I also get these little reds bumps on my arms and legs. My doctor told me it was from moisture loss and said to use a good lotion. I have not been able to find anything that relieves the itching. Do any of you ladies know of a product that is safe to use and has worked for you? Thanx :)

Funny as it sounds, I use Johnsons Baby lotion with Cocoa B___ter and it seems to work really well and smells fantastic!! Or try Body shop cocoa b___ter body b___ter. That works wonders as well! And seems to last all day long! Bets of luck. I hate having itchy dry skin!!

I have the same thing only mine came with a slight rash on the top of my bottom and low back. My dr called it "pregnancy rash" he gave me a cream to use and recomended benadryl.
The rash is gone but the itching is horrible at night. It's funny because I am not itchy where the rash was but on my arms and chest the most. the only thing that seems to work is the benadryl. I take it in the evening and it seems to calm it down. Good luck with your itching.

I am 30 weeks 5 days and am a bit itchy too. Get some Cortisone cream with anti itch. It works for me.

Thanx for your suggestions ladies. :) I saw my doctor yesterday and she called it a "pregnancy rash" too. There is not much she can give me, so I guess I will continue to use soothing lotions and tough it out! Mama J, I just bought some benadryl, so I will try it and see if it helps. Thanx :)
