Why is my body itching me? It started when I was pregnant, now my baby is 14months and nothing has changedWhen i was pregnant, i was always having this severe itching all over my body. Was told it's part of the pregnancy drama and will stop after delivery. My baby is 14months plus now, my body still itches me like mad. It happens in the evening/night. When it starts, it's my back that is serious and my breast. I don't know what to do anymore. I use shea butter mixed with coconut oil and olive oil. Once i finish having my evening bathe, i will use about 1 mins to scratch my body. If it's the breast thats itching me, its only the breast but if its the whole body, the breast doesn't itch me. And the breast doesn't itch me after bathe, its either before bathing or after some hours. Pls help me. I don't know how best to describe this

Change ur bathing soap to a medicated one for now, then add savlon to ur bathing water.
