Dr. Katharine Cox answered

Specializes in Pediatric Emergency Medicine

Itchy feet: Not a known side effect of pregnancy. It is likely related to some other cause. If there is any redness or swelling see your doctor. Otherwise treat the symptom with Aveeno (oatmeal) soaks and a moisturizer such as Cetaphil. All the best.
