I'm 17 weeks into my 2nd pregnancy and no matter how much I shower or use deodorant I stink, especially first thing in the morning. I don't know if this is normal or why it's happening, never had this in my first either! Anyone relate or am I alone on this?!

I had this when i was pregnant with DS1. I went to the drs and he prescribed a steroid based roll on. Not going to lie... it stung like hell when I first put it on...but it definitely helped!

This has completely changed me...brilliant stuff..I'm sure I read it on here...not a whiff now...I'm not particularly sweaty but found regular deodorants just weren't working any more. Good luck

I'm 30 weeks now and I'd forgotten this happened! I just kept a roll on in my bag and topped it up regularly.

Thanks for the replies glad I've not been the only one who had this problem. I've been applying roll on but the one I'm using just isn't cutting it, will be trying the max protection for sure!!

Wash using bar soap rather than shower gel (And not Dove soap as that's effectively just solid shower gel). Apparently shower gel builds up on the skin so anti-perspirant can't do its thing properly
