I didn't know that it made you smell, so for the first week or so after taking it, I was seriously concerned about my BO smell! Haha</p> <p>I'm generally not too smelly. Being pregnant and PP makes me smell a little extra though - I need like 2 showers a day!</p> <p>Sometimes on the weekends if DH and I are busy with housework and don't leave the house all weekend I don't put deodorant on - never even miss it! I don't take the chance when I leave the house though... </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-you-smelly#post-1583716 Tue, 22 Apr 2014 12:59:19 +0000 lamariniere 1583716@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@ms.janedoe: haha, the same thing happens to me on fenugreek. :happy: </p> <p>I never thought I was smelly, but I'm 4 months PP and feel like my hormones are making me smelly. A friend told me about this natural coconut oil based deo and I whipped up a batch and it is amazing. I'm usually not a huge believer in all natural DIY products, but this one totally works. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-you-smelly#post-1583691 Tue, 22 Apr 2014 12:54:44 +0000 MamaMoose 1583691@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Nope. I'm not a particularly sweaty person. The only place I sweat really badly is around my hairline which isn't really a smelly place! But it's annoying because I could never workout without showering immediately afterwards. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-you-smelly#post-1583689 Tue, 22 Apr 2014 12:54:36 +0000 mrsjazz 1583689@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Nope. I actually stopped wearing deodorant because I realized I was just doing it out of habit. I only figured this out after many days of rushing around in the morning to get LO and I ready and out the door and not putting on deodorant. I now only wear it during my period, on hot days, or if I'm working out. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-you-smelly#post-1583684 Tue, 22 Apr 2014 12:53:53 +0000 twodoghouse 1583684@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Right now yes! I'm near the end of my pregnancy and sweat constantly! Pre-pregnancy I still sweated a lot when working out, but not quite like this! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-you-smelly#post-1583681 Tue, 22 Apr 2014 12:53:44 +0000 lawbee11 1583681@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I don't think so! I put deodorant on at night after I shower then again in the morning when I'm getting dressed. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-you-smelly#post-1583678 Tue, 22 Apr 2014 12:52:54 +0000 Turd Ferguson 1583678@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yep...I've been on Fenugreek since LO was born almost 6 months ago. Fail. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-you-smelly#post-1583677 Tue, 22 Apr 2014 12:52:43 +0000 meganmp 1583677@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>You totally just reminded me that I forgot to put on deoderant today! Good thing I have extra here at work... </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-you-smelly#post-1583668 Tue, 22 Apr 2014 12:51:38 +0000 chopsuey 1583668@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Nope! I was shortly after I had DD. Omg. PP bo was the worst.<br /> Back to not smelling though :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-you-smelly#post-1583665 Tue, 22 Apr 2014 12:50:43 +0000 Anagram 1583665@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>YUP. I am anal about making sure I don't smell anything off when I lift my arms. I had two girl friends in college who insisted they didn't need deoderant...but a few nights going out dancing with them proved otherwise (I guess they couldn't smell their own BO) and now I *never* want to be that person. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-you-smelly#post-1583633 Tue, 22 Apr 2014 12:45:20 +0000 blackbird 1583633@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I have to reapply deoderant on hot days. I try to use the clinical strength stuff, but yeah, i still need more before the gym. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-you-smelly#post-1583516 Tue, 22 Apr 2014 12:19:32 +0000 snowjewelz 1583516@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Not as much as DH! I'd have to really had a big workout to get sweaty. And unless I have to incubate for a whole day, I don't think I smell that bad? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-you-smelly#post-1583494 Tue, 22 Apr 2014 12:10:26 +0000 Mrs. Sunshine 1583494@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Mamaof2: my mom doesn't sweat either. She barely even gets hot! She will wear a light sweater &amp; jeans &amp; tennis shoes in the middle of a southern Texas summer! It's so crazy to me. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-you-smelly#post-1583489 Tue, 22 Apr 2014 12:08:43 +0000 Mamaof2 1583489@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I don't think so! I never sweat either which I think is weird - I get hot and sticky but never actually sweat! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-you-smelly#post-1583464 Tue, 22 Apr 2014 12:00:09 +0000 Mrs. Sunshine 1583464@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I usually shower at night &amp; put on deoderant. Then I put on more deoderant when I get dressed in the morning. On days that I work out/go for a run in the morning I usually end up with a 3rd layer. &amp; even then, on a really warm day or if I'm about to start my period, about half way through the day, I notice a faint scent if I happen to lift my arm...thankfully it isn't strong but it's so annoying! </p>
