Boobies!!!

Hi there, hope everybody and LOs are well.

Has anybody got any advice on itchy boobs and nipples? For the past 2 days my right boob and nipple have been constantly itching. I have even made it red by keep itching so its now getting painful. I moisturise everyday and take my bra off in the evening to let them breathe but have ran out of ideas.

  • Have you tried ice? I had a boob job a few years ago and have permanently lost the feeling in my boobs but since getting pg I have started getting itching under the skin but obviously if I scratch I can't feel it so I put ice in a plastic bag and wrap a tea towel round it and hold it on my boob until the itching has stopped.

    I hope this helps

  • Thanks caz, i will try anything as it is driving me mad!!!
    I look like a weirdo at work, trying to subtlely rub my boobs without customers seeing!!! Havn't got any ice at the mo so will have to wait until this evening but will definately give it a go.
    Many Thanks

  • No problem Katie, I look weird too as hubby has asked me before why I have deep scratch's on my boobs and it is cos I have been itching them but can't feel when I have scratched to hard, I can make them bleed without even feeling it which is quite worrying.

  • ohhhh also if you are at work and can't get ice I usally go to the toilet and get some toilet paper and run it under cold water, squeeze it out and put it against the itch for a couple of seconds. That can help too.

  • Thanks for the tip lara, as it happens I was wearing a lacy one yday. Will try just a plain one at work today. I havn't had one on this morning and it seems to have helped so you could be right.
