Just a random question, is it normal for your nipples to itch when you are pregnant?

What can I do next?

YES! It is because they are expanding along with your breasts.

Towards the end of your pregnancy you might even have a clear milky discharge coming out of your nipples.

All of your skin can itch when you are pregnant. It is the skin scretching and the hormones changing in your body. You need to stay moisturized with some cocoa butter and or vitamin e oil. If you gain weight too quickly this will also stretch out the skin quicker and make you also make your skin itchy. Make sure to also not use water that is too hot because this in general can make the skin itchy.

Not sure if it's normal or not, but I got it both in this pregnancy and the last one. It lasted for a few months and was HORRIBLY annoying. I lansinol'ed and used a natural ointment I found at BRU. It went away eventually, but was definitely there for a few months. It was worse at night too!
