Hi EveryoneSmile

I've just found out that I'm pregnant (period not due until Saturday but BFP at 11DPO on Tuesday).

However, yesterday and today, every time I go upstairs I can smell this disgusting smell (kind of like a cross between cat wee and just musty, like mould)Hmm

DH can't smell what I can smell and I'm starting to think I'm going crazy! Is this a thing? Should I be worried? I never experienced this in a previous pregnancy and am starting to worry this isn't pregnancy related and there is something wrong with me that I should be worried aboutSad

My sense of smell is in overdrive so chances are you're right and there is something somewhere smelly but in houses there always will be all kinds of gross things under floorboards and in walls so I wouldn't go looking.

Recently I had an overwhelming smell of tea, it's all I could smell anywhere and there was no tea in the house. After looking for ages and giving up I opened a parcel that was in the hallway... an individually wrapped teabag was sat there taunting me and stinking. Since then I've realised it's probably not me going mad every time I smell anything.
