Hello dear,I understand your concern.In my opinion the itching all over the body during the last trimester might be routinely seen in pregnancy.But it is always better to evaluate by doing liver function test.If they are normal the itching can be considered physiological.Nothing to worry.Tab.cetrizine and udiliv are safe to take during pregnancy and they are usually given at times of itching or allergy in pregnancy.So relax mostly the itching might be physiological.
