Does anyone else have this? Lately I've noticed that as the day goes on I start to feel unclean and like I need another shower. I'm 21+1 and starting to put on more weight now. Also, it has been very muggy this week. I just wondered if anyone else is feeling like this, is this another aspect of pregnancy?

I'm obsessed with washing myself, always have been but its worse at the moment 2/3 showers a days.

Yes! I started to feel like this around 20 weeks and I'm now 22 weeks. Just feel like I need to shower all the time! Especially if I've done a house chore or walked the dog.

Totally agree am 38+4 weeks today.
I feel bad for having 2 baths, 1 in the morning & then after dinner to feel comfortable 🙈 glad I'm not the only one though ladies Blush
