Fat and Smelly

[LouisecH]

Yuck! I repulse myself.

On a diet of fruit and toast I have already put on 8lbs. How, why, where?????

On top of that I have either developed an incredibly enhanced sense of smell or I stink all the time. I'm having to shower 3 times a day to cope with myself.

Sorry for this disgusting post but I don't see why I should suffer alone. What is going on????

you've got ultra sensative sniffer dog nose!!!
i'm like that at the moment!!
can smell something i don't like from 5 miles away!!!

xox

Hmmm I don't know if that's comforting or whether that means I smell awful all the time. Do you think other people can smell me as badly as i can???

 

[HayleyB]

ha ha, sorry.... its just the pregnancy hormones, somehow make you more sensative to smells....
So its only you that can smell whatever you can smell!!!

Sorry i didn't mean it to sound bad!!

Louise don't worry, I was convinced I stank in the first tri! I started using mens extra strength deoderant and couldn't stop showering! I didn't smell apparantley and I'm sure you don't either

hehe, dog nose strikes again. Its murder, you can smel everything and anything. Im convinced there is a smell in the air. I used to have to move seats on the train because people would breeth and their breath would smell.

The plus side is that I can tell when jess has filled her nappy though she should be telling me by now I would have hoped.

Im sure you dont smell at all.

My sense of smell has gone through the roof! Ella's nappy bin is almost unbearable and don't get me started on the recycling caddy in the kitchen.... I'm sure you don't smell hon

Weight gain most likely is fluid due to the hot weather - are they the scales you always use? I weighed myself on the Boots ones yesterday and they weighed me 8lbs heavier than my ones at home (my ones at home are always the same as the weight watchers ones when I used to go so I trust them )

Ok I'm feeling better now - thanks

But as for the fridge...

 

[rusks]

i'm with you on the fridge louise!! i keep going through everything to see what has gone off, its nothing but there is this lingering smell!!

i feel as though i have put on loads of weight as well, i feel a right slob and have no energy to do any exercise and i feel so guilty! i put on 3lbs by last week but this week i feel even bigger but im staying off the scales!

 

[lozzi]

i HATE HATE HATE the fridge, ive bleached it and everything but that smell is STILL there grrr


im sure u dont smell sweetie. its just ur sensetive nose, joys of pregnancy!


i put on loads at first but seem to have lost it now, altho i dont look like i have. look like ive eaten the whole fridge at once at the mo.

I am feeling really rough with smells, OH cooked his brekkie this morning, I went and laid down to get out the way, it stunk rotten (egg & bacon muffin). I hold my breathe when out walking as the tiniest smells make me feel so ill yet OH can't smell anything?!

So I am really sure you don't smell babe!! xx

 

[ewoodgirl]

Wow, I feel just the same. I thought I'd lose weight after giving up the booze but no I've put almost a stone on too and everything stinks. The car, the couch, the washing, the whole house and mostly myself. I had a temporary patch where I was having 3 baths a day as I thought I stank. Now I don't think I smell but everything else does still!

I put on 7lbs by 12 weeks hunny so dont worry, everyone is different.

Im now 20 weeks and 1 1/2 stone heavier, Ive been told baby is big for dates so im hoping its all baby
