That I cannot satisfy, it's so silly but is starting to pee me off.
Third pregnancy and I crave the smell of johnsons baby bath in the blue bottle, I want to eat it, I have to cover myself in it, I chomp the soapy sponge. But it doesn't work, it doesn't taste like it smells Sad

I love lemony bleach but I know I can't sit here all day sniffing it, i allow myself the odd sniff, or bleach the hell out of the kitchen or bathroom.

If you by any chance have the blue johnsons baby bath, go sniff it and let me know what I can eat to make this feeling go away.

This isn't normal surely x

This is called pica and can be a sign that you're deficient in something, you need to speak to your midwife or GP.

I agree with rock chick.

I can also say that I find baby bath to smell similar to those Parma violets sweets. They have a very perfumey taste and might satisfy your cravings.

I craved the smell of chlorine duri

Sorry.

I craved the smell of chlorine during my pregnancy. It drove me insane only being able to smell or taste it when I wanted to.
