itching palms :(

[Riot_Grrrl]

i know this may seem trivial but for the last few days and nights in particular the palms of my hands have been itching to the point where i'm scratching until i bleed, it's even disturbing my sleep...now the soles of my feet are starting ito itch. My hands are now constantly sore and burning due to the scratching..do you think this could be a symptom of pregnancy, it is driving me wild!!! thanx xx

Could it be the heat? Dont want to panic you but maybe read the OC sticky above these posts, cant remember the full extent of content but refers to itching so prob worth a look. Personally I would just give MW a call tomorrow just to have a chat, hope it goes soon.

I'd give your MW a call as itching palms and feet are a symptom of obstetric cholestasis. A liver function and bile acid blood test can easily confirm or rule it out.

Im unsure whether its a preggy symptom but hopefully you'll come into some money
