very itchy nipples

Hi, im currently 23 weeks pregnant, and in the last few weeks one of my nipples have been very itchy (i have 1 cracked nipple due to eczema problems when i was young). The itchy nipple is the cracked one.

could you please advise if this is normal or it is something that i should get checked?

many thanks.

Answer: Hi,
You may have thrush in your nipple which is quite common in prengancy. It may be worthwhile having a check up as you may have some dermatitis in this area due to your history.
Best wishes,
Alex
