I AM JUST OVER 15 WEEKS PREGNANT.  YESTERDAY I STARTED WITH THIS RANDOM ITCHING.  HANDS,  FEET,  AND UPPER BODY MOSTLY.  IT HAS BECOME AGGRAVATING.  CALLED THE DR AND THEY SAY TAKE BENADRYL.  ANY SUGGESTIONS.  THERE IS NO RASH.

I used to have severe itching on my shoulders, arms, and hands.  I got into the habit of putting lotion on right after my shower.  Using a good lotion like, ucerin or something with advanced therapy in it.  After I got a routine of this, the itching was gone.  If you already do this, then you might want to resort to the benedryl.  Good luck.
