One of the symptoms that can worsen as a woman gets further in her pregnancy is increasingly dry skin. As the abdomen gets bigger and bigger, the skin stretches and gets drier and drier. Oftentimes a pregnant woman's stomach can itch quite a bit and there can also be some discoloration, rough patches or skin and peeling. There can also be peeling skin on the nipples due to the fact that a woman's breasts are also increasing in size. As the skin gets drier, an expecting mom should increase the frequency of application of moisturizer, especially after bathing.
Dry, itchy skin is most common over tightly stretched areas of skin and can cause a pregnant mom real discomfort. However, expecting moms should be careful before they reach for any moisturizer. It is important that you have the confidence that you’re using a dry skin treatment safe in pregnancy that has been clinically researched and tested. This is because some topical ingredients are absorbed into the bloodstream in small amounts. Once an ingredient enters the mother's bloodstream it can easily cross through the placenta into baby's circulation and some ingredients can be potentially harmful. It's best to use a dry skin treatment safe in pregnancy that is teratology screened.
