When your skin starts to stretch during pregnancy, your stomach will start to itch and the skin may become irritated.

Here are a few tips to relieve the itchiness and sensitivity:

• Rub moisturizers on the affected area.  Natural and mild lotions are recommended.
• Don’t scratch! Scratching or rubbing your skin causes the skin to be more sensitive. Fight the urge; it will only make it worse.
• Soak yourself in tempered baths. Consult a pharmacist to recommend an soothing oil.
• Keep your skin moist. Avoid foods that can make your skin fry, such as fried foods.
