I stink

[mannah]

Yes! I can smell myself even when I'm fresh out of the shower. I asked my husband and made him get up in there and sniff me and he couldn't smell anything so I think it might be our over active sense of smell making it seem worse than it is! But I notice it all the time.

Yes! I did shower twice a day for a long time. I also switched to lady Mitchum deodorant after secret, dove and degree failed me.

I noticed my armpits smelling worse when I worked out and got a good sweat in (if I forgot to reapply deodorant) but I'm not noticing it as much now. I actually noticed this before I even took a pregnancy test and wondered why I was smelling worse all of a sudden lol.

During my last pregnancy I stated using men's deodorant because I stunk so bad! I'm 24 weeks now and haven't noticed any stink yet!

Yes. I was blowdrying my hair this weekend (so I'd been out of the shower for like...ten minutes?) and noticed I was already getting a sweaty funk. I prefer to think of it as my sense of smell getting stronger and not me getting stinkier, but I'm sure it's both!

[eav2c]

Yes. I've found post-pregnancy to be even worse. I need to use prescription strength deodorant to even halfway combat it.

I noticed at around 5 or 6 weeks, but I think it was heightened sense of smell. I wear Secret Clinical Strength as my regular deodorant and I haven't noticed any increased funkiness!

Yes, I am so gross. I used to even be able to work out (yoga or something) and not sweat or need to shower after. Now I need to shower immediately after and even during I am gagging myself. I use DH's body wash and had to buy clinical deodorant and it still doesn't help much.

[boscobee]

Yes! I thought this was just me! Nice to know it's not. I also made my husband smell me and my clothes and he claims to not smell anything different but I can smell myself and I'm really self conscious about it. I hope it's just my extra sensitive pregnant nose.

Post-pregnancy has been horrible for me. I've taken up collecting different deodorants to see what works! So far Secret Clinical combined with Lavanila has worked pretty good.

My husband says I smell different but not necessarily worse

twodogsandababy and eav2c which deoderants are you using?

I'm using the Secret Clinical right now and I really think it is helping.  Buy it at Costco! Way cheaper!
