Just been eaten alive

[DeathMetalMum]

Went for a walk earlier today and the mosqiitoes couldnt keep away from me. I've been bitten a few times before but never so many at one tim. Others with me were fine. I am guessing this has something to do with being pregnant, smelling different or someting, anyone else experienced this?

Oh so many spelling errors stupid phone!

Having extra blood working around your system? Lemongrass is a small they hate, my aunty made up a lemongrass spray for me when I went to Thailand and they didn't come anywhere near me. Worth a try.

That lemongrass tip is awesome! Would you have a recipe?

Yup - mozzies love a pregnant woman.
This stuff is great www.nealsyardremedies.com/citronella-formula and they do a lemongrass product too.
Only one caveat - I haven't actually used it in pregnancy (haven't been anywhere hot) and I haven't checked that the essential oils are ok to use in pregnancy.
