I'm 8+2 and I can't bear the way my DS smells. He is sitting on my lap right now, needing a nappy change, stroking my face but I just can't work up the stomach to do it. It's not only when he is pooey either. Please tell me this won't last too much longer? My nose is up to super sleuth capabilities at the moment

, some of my strange sense of smell is still with me now..what id suggest is putting some nice handcream or the like on your hand arm and having a big sniff, or even rubbing it under your nose??extreme measures i know! but i had to do it as i couldnt stand smell of dp!

dont feel guilty I felt like this as well all through my pregnancy with dd but it would come in waves I would be fine for weeks and then have a couple of days like that (it may pass completly at 12 weeks!)

but I have a nose of a bloodhound whilst pregnant

best of luck with your bump xx x

What about smothering him in Vicks? Or Olbas Oil on his clothes?

i sometimes spray some air freshner before i change him!

That seems a bit mean Colditz! Poor little soul. He is so lovely really, and I'm trying not to let him know. I'll try the air freshner now and get him cleaned up, especially as he's back on my lap again!

Flossam,

I know how you feel i'm between 10 and 15 weeks (not sure of date yet waiting for scan) i had this all the through my first pg.

I have it now with 2nd pg and even butter toast smells foul.

I think you just have to grin and bear it the best you can.

I have solved the problem at the mo as i have a stinking cold and can't smell anything, also not hungry so food not an probelm.

Flossam · 02/02/2007 18:32

poor you with the cold! I am glad its not just me. Thanks for all the advice.
