It is common to experience itchy feet when pregnant due to hormonal changes - wife is 27 wk, but what causes the itching to be worse in bed at night?

Yes: After climbing into bed, the skin warms gradually, and the sweat glands become somewhat more active, just enough to cause itching of dry skin, which is more common on the feet and also pregnant women.
