The Bear Neccesities

Lately, I cannot get this song out of my head...the simple bear necessities, forget about your worries and your strife...hmmm hmmm hmmm... This is not due to my love of Baloo or my dreaming of a trip to the tropics, but rather that scene where Baloo is singing this song and rubbing like crazy up against a tree because he is sooooo itchy! For about a week now, everything itches... well except for my stomach and the bottom of my feet. I've even woken up scratching my own palms, eyebrows, you name it. I've tried the Aveeno oatmeal bath, the Dr. Palmer's lotion, Benedryl and nothing gives a bit of help. Its funny though because I almost didn't tell the Dr. the other day because typically when I tell them of some new discomfort their response is, "yeah, well, being pregnant with triplets is going to be uncomfortable." But this time I mention it and I see her ears perk up and she acts like I should of brought this up much earlier. Turns out it can actual be a liver function problem that appears in pregnancy especially with multiples. So they ran a blood panel and I am awaiting those results. Honestly, I hope its negative and its just all the increased blood flow that I also know can cause itchiness, but I guess we'll see. How about you other preggers out there, did you experience this at all during your pregnancy???

    I didn't itch with Avery, but now I wonder if I will with 2!
    Question for you, did you or did you not find out the sexes of those LO's?
