Hi Does Anyone Has ICP Before?

Intrahepatic cholestasis of pregnancy (ICP), also known as obstetric cholestasis, cholestasis of pregnancy. Something got to do with liver and bile issue, during pregnancy. Had no rash itch on only palm and sole. I read, bby could be born premature or worse, stillborn! Any share of experience and survival? Tq

Pls get checked immediately. My whole body was itching. I thought it was due to hormonal imbalance. Upon doing a blood test. Doctor found I had ICP and has to do an emergency C-section at 37 weeks. The thing abt ICP is, it won't affect the mum.. It will affect the baby. Like u mention chances of premature and worse case stillborn is High

yes, it's true that the symptoms varies. For me it was severe itch at night. From head to feet (sole) till I can't sleep.

I had bad itchiness when I was pregnant (1 time only), whole body from head to toe, keep scratching like monkey, I keep drinking water to detox (so urinate a lot), never check with doctor about this, but my baby born healthy

I also read some article before about that so i was a bit paranoid whenever i have some itching when I was pregnant. Better to have it checked asap to be sure.
