Hello ma'am and welcome.
Based on the provided information, it seems like this could be related to a possible accumulation of bacteria or due to a change in vaginal pH which is also commonly experienced during pregnancy. As your only symptom is an itch, we still cannot be sure whether this is because of an infection or it has other causes to it, but it would be wise to get both a urine analysis and a vaginal swab test conducted to make sure all is well.
Hope this helps.
Best wishes.
