Thus far, I have been pretty fortunate not to have had any m/s to really speak of. Specifically, I have not experienced any notable waves of nausea except when associated with my near constant heartburn (which comes even after I drink water... awesome!)
*But* ... I do find that my "gross out factor" is dialed way up! The other day, I was watching tv and they showed a picture of some dude's teeth. It made me want to puke (not literally, but I was just totally revolted). I have this same reaction to food commercials (though I can eat just fine) and to people's body odor/cologne/perfume. Anyone experiencing this?
Re: Gross Out Factor Way Cranked Up
Yes, and DH likes to take advantage of it. He thinks it's funny to see me gag...
Also, I work at a low-income community clinic, and I spend my Friday mornings seeing patients at a homeless day center. I've definitely noticed that I'm much less tolerant of bodily smells. I usually have a stomach like a rock, or at least I'm able to just breathe through my mouth. Not any more!
Awesome! I actually didn't graduate from U of M, but I did do my predoctoral internship and my postdoc there, hence my allegiance. :-)
That works, too. I see you are still in the Michigan area...whereabouts in MI? I am in Livonia.
We're in the Lansing area, but I actually work in Ann Arbor.
whoa--this is definitely the same for me!
A coworker wears this cologne that used to be very pleasant in the office, now when he walks by its like 100% overkill!! my sniffer is totally more sensitive now, and because of that can find my stomach flip flopping at a moments notice!
Also, I used to hate the smell of coffee... now I love it!! how long does this last?? lol
Congrats to all of you mommy-to be's!

I walked around Sunday insisting that everyone, including my husband, reeked. I'm hoping that was just a once in a pregnancy type of day.
