Who else still has super smell powers?

One of the worst pregnancy symptoms was having an extra powerful nose. It went away after my first baby but it doesn't seem to be going away this time. I can still smell every darn thing all the time and I'm constantly being grossed out by smells. Am I stuck with this super power now? Anyone else? And no, I'm not KU again.

Re: Who else still has super smell powers?

  • I still have a really strong sense of smell, but at least it doesn't make me feel nauseous anymore.

  • I think they may be stronger. Is that possible?

    I think for sure its possible! I can smell when DD has a wet diaper from across the room! DH will be holding her and all of the sudden I will tell him she needs changed. He will pick her up and sniff her to see, and then roll his eyes because I am right!

  • I've always had a sensitive nose to smells and when I'm pregnant its ridiculous.  I can smell food a mile away.

  • Me too! I kinda thought I was imagining it at first. Or maybe just still postpartum crazy. Good to know I'm not the only one. I never had a great sense of smell, and it's so weird to still have it. I'd be afraid I was KTFU again but that's SOOO not possible... Might as well be a nun now.

  • I'm always had a super sniffer.  DH calls it my super power!  LOL!  It was even worse when I was pregnant.  I'm not sure if the "nose" is back to the way it was before I was pregnant, but I definatly still have a super sniffer!

    Got pregnant on our own without Fertility Treatments - January 2016!  Thank you snow storm Jonas!

    At 20-week anatomy scan found IUGR (Intrauterine Growth Restriction), and very low Amniotic Fluid.  Now, I'm High Risk and have weekly ultrasounds to monitor fluid and growth.  If baby runs out of room or is too growth restricted, they will deliver ASAP.  My current goal is to make it to 28 weeks!
