Re: tmi

  • How does it smell? Coffee alters the smell of my urine, as does asparagus and the prenatal that I've been taking. Have you recently switched to a different kind of prenatal or added a new vitamin to your diet? Certain foods or drinks can make it smell different also. However, if it smells sweeter it could be a sign of gestational diabetes. Your breath and urine can sometimes emit a certain smell if you develop diabetes until it's under control. Also, feeling very thirsty can be a sign of gestational diabetes as well, though more likely you're just thirsty because you're pregnant. Hopefully, it's just something you ate or drank, but ask your doctor about it to be on the safe side.

    If it changes color, then notify your OB.
