23 weeks pregnant itchy hands and abdo pain

[Loz1617]

Iv got terribly itchy hands on the top especially the right and occasionally tops of feet itch. Had bad pelvic n abdominal pain and some pain in lower back for 3 days to point where can hurt to stand up straight thought was a UTI but apparently urine was fine any one have any possible answers thanks

I had really bad pelvic pains and went through the same thing, no sign of urine infection and bloods fine. I looked it up and spoke to friends and discovered I had SPD or pelvic girdle pain. I contacted my GP and they have made a referral for physiotherapy. Not sure about itchy hands, talk to your GP or midwife if the pain, symptoms get worse.

Hey, i have this and being checked for oc dont know the actual spelling , but it to do with your liver.....but it could be just like dry skin coming cut dwn on acid fruits like oranges that could help x

Itchy hands may be dryness of skin with altered hormones but can also be a sign that your liver may be struggling a bit. Please talk to your midwife about this, they should do blood work to check your liver function.

Any concerns u can always ring ur maternity triage dept at yr hosp they will tell u if they think u need to be seen and they can check u over and get ur blood results back in a few hours. ..any pain should always be checked too x

Obstetric cholestasis. ..google it and if u think u have the symptoms def call triage today x

I suffered terrible itching and swelling and it did eventually turn out to be cholestatis and pre eclampsia. You can't be too careful so if you aren't 100% confident with your midwife get checked by the doctor. It could be just your hormones though but it's better to be safe ! Xx

I had that but at 38wks. I had all blood tests and they ended up ok. But I would totally agree with everyone. Call your midwife or hospital triage as you really should get it checked just in case it is something like obstetric cholestasis or pre eclampsia. Fingers crossed all is ok for ya xxx
