I supposed to give birth august 25 but due to this cholestasis, they have to induce me at 36weeks.thank god my baby came out healthy.
Congratulations! They induced me at 36 weeks, baby came out healthy. But I got pregnant again and am having cholestasis already at 7 weeks
Congratulations. I'm currently 36 weeks pregnant and diagnosed with cholestasis. Do you have a C-section or vaginal birth?
I just got an elective cs with cholestasis at 37weeks few days ago.. my LFTs levels are dangerously high, luckily baby is doing fine.@aditimukhopadhyay5047
That's so scary. I am freaking out about being positive. But I'm trying to stay positive!
At what weeks you had your baby?
I feel like obs have to warn about cholestasis to every preagnant woman or can be fatal for the baby in the womb!
I'm 28 weeks and just had a diagnosis of this, I have crohns disease, so I wonder if it's a link, it started with itching in my face, which spread down and out
I was diagnosed with Cholestasis at sound 30 weeks. This is my third child and my first time to experience this. I am 35 weeks and I can’t handle the itching anymore. This is extremely uncomfortable. I can’t stop itching, especially at night. Medication 💊 is not helping

I used eucerin for exima when I have severe itching and it helps!
It is very horrible itching in hands fingers and legs unable to control medicine also not working m facing tight now in 38th weeks started from 37th weeks
I was induced to labor on 36 weeks because of it. The disease itself is not that dangerous but the risk of stillbirth is a real scary. First I thought my iticing is normal in pregnancy but after some routine tests the level of some enzymes were so high that I was hospitalized immediately. And I had other problems also. Alhamdulillah my baby was healthy with only jaundice although I was terrified about his health
