When the dr said that breastfed babies' poop had no scent, I thought he was crazy! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/postpartum-super-nose#post-1072009 Sat, 07 Sep 2013 18:34:21 +0000 beesknees 1072009@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>mine too- stayed around for a long time, now I have baby 2 coming....super nose has been here to stay (2+ years) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/postpartum-super-nose#post-1071432 Sat, 07 Sep 2013 08:25:49 +0000 rachiecakes 1071432@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yes!! It was from pregnancy up to the present. My coworkers think I'm nuts. The smell of hand sanitizer makes me want to puke and I can smell it a mile away.</p> <p>ETA DS is almost 2! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/postpartum-super-nose#post-1071391 Sat, 07 Sep 2013 07:54:36 +0000 Dandelion 1071391@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'm having this problem pregnant...I don't remember it being a thing postpartum, though Maybe it's a biological thing, like being able to smell predators or something? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/postpartum-super-nose#post-1071336 Sat, 07 Sep 2013 06:20:16 +0000 swedishfish 1071336@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Haha, it's definitely stayed with me. I just complained about DH's smelly feet last night. It is getting better though! I'm also 10 weeks pp, like @pepper! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/postpartum-super-nose#post-1071276 Sat, 07 Sep 2013 01:31:01 +0000 Pepper 1071276@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I had this too! I had a very heightened sense of smell during pregnancy, and it definitely lingered postpartum. I'm 10 weeks out and it's not as strong as it was. Hopefully it goes away for you in the coming weeks!. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/postpartum-super-nose#post-1071237 Fri, 06 Sep 2013 23:13:14 +0000 deerylou 1071237@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'm 7 weeks postpartum, and still have a pregnant nose. Actually, my sense of smell might even be *stronger* since I've given birth. </p> <p>I seriously feel like I should work for a police K9 unit, because I can literally. smell, everything. If a banana peel has been in our trash can overnight, I need it removed, immediately. I smell the toilet water from the bedroom, I can tell you exactly which vegetables are in your sandwich when it's still in the wrapping paper. Someone's smoking in the parking lot of the grocery store? I can smell it in the frozen food aisle. A bonfire at the beach 2 blocks from my apartment? I'm basically roasting a marshmallow with my nose. </p> <p>Honestly, I can't stand it, anymore. I feel like I need to clean the house, 24 hours a day, because I can smell EVERYTHING. I can smell DH's socks through his work shoes, and need to have him bathe his feet upon entering the house (his feet aren't even that smelly). I clean the bathtub every morning because I feel like I can smell "shampoo residue". Is that even a thing? What in the ever living....</p> <p>Anyone else? It's driving me nuts. </p>
