Itching

[TeamJOJO]

My skin has been so dry lately. I am using lotion in the morning & evening and I have been drinking lots of water but I am still dry & itchy. I am a scratcher too so that doesn't help. I now have small rashes on my legs & arms where I have scratched alot. My doctor gave me a list of things I can use so I started with calamine lotion which helped a little. He said I can use Benadryl cream or the pill. I started using the cream yesterday because the calamine wasn't cutting it anymore. I am tempted to use the pill but I am weird about taking meds when pregnant. Do you guys have any other suggestions that you may have used in the past?

no suggestions here, but I hope something works for you.

No suggestions, my skin is a bit dry as well, but not as bad as yours. Hope something works for you!

I use Aquaphor on my girls. My oldest dd gets really dry skin in the winter and this is the only thing that seems to help.

I will have to try the Aquaphor. I have some of that. My DD has really sensitive skin & we tried it on her but she broke out. She uses the baby Aveeno which I have tried but it hasn't worked any better than my regular lotion.
