As a new pregnant mum-to-be, every day brings unique changes to your body, and those changes can be surprising. As your belly expands, the stretching skin might cause itchiness, and you may find your skin feeling drier than usual. This is perfectly normal, as hormonal fluctuations can lead to increased dryness and sensitivity, particularly during rapid growth. Plus, when your skin is dry, the itchiness can become more intense, leading to scratching that could harm your skin further.

But don’t worry! With a little extra self-care, you can effectively soothe the itchiness and combat dryness. Investing in a reliable skincare product can help protect your skin and prevent further damage. 

Check out our top picks for a gentle, effective skincare regimen to keep your skin soft, healthy, and comfortable throughout this incredible journey.
