I have already spoken to several people on here but just wondered about the rest of you (thanks Freesia for that info!!)

the last few days I have got itching.. mainly bottom of back and arms and feet..it gets better with moisturizer and happens mainly later in the day.. is it normal? did any of you guys have it and not have cholestasis?I know ther are other reasons for itching too just wondering if you guys experience any itching?

Man I'll be gutted if i have it..makes higher risk of preterm labour/stillbirth etc..and only 1-2% of people have it:( I already have antibiotics due to the ureaplasmic cells that can cause preterm labour!:( (twice) and only 1-2 of people have misses m/c and I got that too:(!!

*calming down* anyway I will mention it to midwife when i see her Thursday and i just had a full set of blood tests but as its a specialist test I will have to have more i guess?

Anyway any experiences would be great to hear about..thanks:)

I had random itchy periods but I put it down to the heat when I got them. Could it be that??

I was a puree feeder, forward facing, cot sleeping, pram pushing kind of Mum... and my kids survived!

Oh man, do I remember the itching!!!! I would scratch myself raw in the night. Moisturiser was the best thing.
