I went away on holiday for a few days and interestingly my dermatitis has died down over that time, so I am blaming workstress for it now, knew there was a good reason not to work!LOL!

How are your itchy legs now Lisha? any luck with the teatree oil?]]> Thu, 01 Nov 2007 14:10:34 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=11795&PID=239575&title=itchy-legs#239575 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=11795&PID=236500&title=itchy-legs#236500 Author: Lisha

I got some tea tree oil yesterday, but not sure if that is making me worse, had to get up in the night and have another good scratch! ]]> Sat, 27 Oct 2007 07:00:03 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=11795&PID=236500&title=itchy-legs#236500 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=11795&PID=236101&title=itchy-legs#236101 Author: lucky3rdtime

My skin all over seems to itch on and off, I have found my skin gets really dry so I plaster myself in moisturiser which does help. I get more random itchiness, if that makes sense. Plus i have dermatitis which is really bad on my right foot (god knows why) and that drives me nuts sometimes, especially when it gets hot!!]]> Fri, 26 Oct 2007 13:25:45 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=11795&PID=236101&title=itchy-legs#236101 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=11795&PID=235796&title=itchy-legs#235796 Author: Tiff

My legs have been really itchy since early on. I thought it was just 'cos I've one varicose vein (had it for years) and I could've been getting more (I've been able to see a light one appering since before preggers), but you've given me hope that maybe thats not it???!!!!]]> Thu, 25 Oct 2007 21:57:50 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=11795&PID=235796&title=itchy-legs#235796 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=11795&PID=235688&title=itchy-legs#235688 Author: busymum

Cheers Lisha, I've been putting most of it up in the November mummies thread so as to not bore anyone else LOL! I'm really loving it, the job itself is not boring but not hard either, but I'm still getting a feel for how much I can do in a 30-hour week. And it's looking likely that the maternity leave lady is not coming back next year so I'm trying to work towards me getting a permanent job in Jan - woohoo! whoops, try not to get too excited yet ]]> Thu, 25 Oct 2007 20:20:47 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=11795&PID=235688&title=itchy-legs#235688 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=11795&PID=235681&title=itchy-legs#235681 Author: Lisha

What about almond oil then? I haven't had the itchy leg thing but if tea tree oil works, then almond may be even better? Ask your mw if she has some.]]> Thu, 25 Oct 2007 20:05:43 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=11795&PID=235674&title=itchy-legs#235674 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=11795&PID=235670&title=itchy-legs#235670 Author: Lisha

I had really itchy skin earlier on. My MW suggested relieving it with some tea tree oil. I tried it & it seemed to provide some relief. Now I use Aveeno moisturiser and it's really really good.

I hope you find some relief soon. Being mega itchy sucks ]]> Thu, 25 Oct 2007 19:45:35 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=11795&PID=235655&title=itchy-legs#235655 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=11795&PID=235646&title=itchy-legs#235646 Author: BaAsKa

Is it cos your skin is dry and scaly? I am really itchy and I think its just cos I'm so dry - need to have a good scrub and moisturise. ]]> Thu, 25 Oct 2007 18:53:12 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=11795&PID=235606&title=itchy-legs#235606 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=11795&PID=235602&title=itchy-legs#235602 Author: Lisha

OMG, are my legs itchy or what! I asked the midwife yesterday and she didn't seem to know why they were, then said all the extra hormones. I have been itching them with a comb, sounds yucky aye, but oh what a relief! now my arms have got the itchy bug, and the spots that I have created! What to do! I have been using manuka honey baby rash cream on them and it seems to be working... any other things? And when will it stop?! ]]> Thu, 25 Oct 2007 18:48:06 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=11795&PID=235602&title=itchy-legs#235602
