This sounds strange but I'm 29 weeks and for the last few weeks I've been craving musty smells. Its normally a smell I really hate but lately I've been wanting to smell it. What's that all about?

Musty as fuck

That craving is normal by the way

I have craving for cleaning/washing smells

I have bio liquid diluted in a spray bottle so I can get a hit whenever I need

You're not alone I am LOVING musty smells too!

I left some washing in the machine for too long after it had finished and just kneeled by the open door and inhaled the musty gorgeousness!!!

Harper power blast is a bit musty smelling too and Ive been loving cleaning the toilet with it.

I am sane really!!!

I'm not pregnant BUT, I was given something yesterday that came from my Nans house and it stank of musty loveliness. I couldn't get enough of it!

Maybe I am pregnant?!

How bizarre! Never heard of this. Made me laugh though, got to love pregnancy craziness!

Ewwwww thought I was bad because I liked the smell of olbas and snuffle babe! Ohhh and my lemon bleach 😌. My iron is a little low and the midwife said when craving non food things it can mean our body is lacking something. When do you get your next blood checks?

Ooh I have an old wardrobe which makes everything that goes inside it smell musty. Would be like Narnia for you! Grin

I did read it could be iron related. Had blood checked last m.w appointment and I'm seeing her Monday. Very strange
