I DO NOT have ICP! Yippeee! No induction for me. I'm so relieved. So apparently, I am just an itchy freak. Gosh. My doctor really had me freaked out. Thanks for all the well-wishes ladies!
I'm feeling so relieved and cool with this pregnancy! 8 days until my due date and my much more relaxed after this scare. Phew!

Have you tried Neutrogena Fragrance Free body oil? It might help. I have freakishly ichy skin in the winter and then when I was pregnant it was a lot worse (and I wasn't that far along). It helps me a lot (even now). So glad you're okay!

My husband has eczema, so we have about every lotion ever made in our house. Cetephil & Eucerin help a bit. It's just freaky that I wake up scratching. Plus, the palms and soles of my feet itch which is a bizarre (and why they initially thought ICP.)
If the itching gets really bad, try using ice packs. I know it sounds crazy in the winter, but it really helped me when I had PUPPS and nothing would make the itching stop- ice gave me a momentary reprieve that I really needed.
Since then I've kept using ice when I get really itchy and it helps
Lucky you! I've had ICP with all 3 of my girls & had to have 3 inductions. So far nothing this pg but ill be super surprised if I escape it. It's freaking miserable especially my first pg when my OB dismissed it as normal itching & didn't treat it. My other 2 were diagnosed, medicated & it was much better.
