Mild to moderate itching is normal because of increased blood flow and stretching of skin. However if you have severe itching along with dark urine, and pale colored stools I would advise you to discuss it with your obstetrician to check your liver function test
Next Steps
try applying coconut oil, aloe vera gel or clamine lotion
