ive been having the same problem, its been driving me crazy, all around the nipple area, not sure if its because the milk ducts are getting ready but heck it is annoying.. also i find i itch if i havent got the correct bra on.. im going to buy some cotton ones to see if that helps!

i have also been getting really itchy legs, feels like i have creepy crawlies under my skin, which obviosly i dont lol, but that mainly gets me on a night time whilst im in bed...

yea ask boots and tell em what its for. i said to midwife its for my legs as they was itchy and she said the aquarous however i spelt it

they may say different for boobs.

know boobs fill with milk for second trimester until the end of 26weeks.

boots normally helpful with things like this tho. Know mine is down here in devon

Aqueous cream is a fantastic cream - it's basically a non-fancy water-based cream. It's non-fragranced and lanolin-free, and costs only about £3 for a 500g pot. It can be used neat as a moisturiser or used instead of soap in the bath or shower.
