Hi dear, I have gone through your question and understand your concerns. Dry and flaky skin in pregnancy can be due to skin changes in pregnancy, due to hypothyroidism .
I would suggest you to consult an OBGYN specialist to get properly examined, investigated and treated accordingly.
Hope you found the answer helpful.
