Sophia, ur itching can be cause of pregnancy causing stretching if the abdominal skin or may be cause of the jaundice itself.number one thing is to do a liver function test and check if it is normal.if it is normal and if it is only the skin stretch that s troubling u u can try calamine lotion, mild cetrizine tabs, even simple coconut oil will help.but if the liver enzymes are abnormal u will need a close monitoring ma.there s a condition called coolest asks of pregnancy which needs to be ruled out
