ugh I don't remember my nose being this sensitive with my first two pregnancies...plus I'm more morning sick this time around so that's a great combo right there lol! Toddler poop x2, spit up from my youngest, gassy dog, milk everywhere all the time, hubby's breath when he kisses me goodnight....EVERYTHING SMELLS. Anyone else dealing with this, and any tips to make it not so bad...? I'm getting tired of breathing through my mouth!!!

Yes! Our cafeteria smells sooooo nasty. Normal people can't stand it but I gag. Also DD's poops are about to send me over the edge. All the smells and none of them are good
I have sensitive smell as it is, but it goes into hyper drive when I'm pregnant. I have no advice though! I just try so hard to breathe through my shirt when necessary so I don't gag too much.
Oh yes! My sniffer is totally in overdrive. We went out to dinner the other night - nowhere super fancy - and I could barely eat my dinner because there was someone seated near us with an offensive odor. My husband never noticed it, but it drove me crazy!

Yes my super smell is driving me crazy! I went to an outdoor music festival yesterday in the 90 degree heat. People were so sweaty and gross and it's doesn't help that I'm short, so my face is usually at the perfect sniffing level of a man's armpit. Between that and the port-a-potty's I almost ralphed multiple times. Yuck.
I literally have the nose of a bloodhound these days, and everything smells awful. I'm pretty sure I could train to sniff out contraband, or track missing people.
@STMs does this get better in the second and/or third trimester?
The only smell from my 1st pregnancy that made me puke was a certain scent of Old Spice body spray DH used. I threw them all away. Foods, however, are hitting me this time around.
The smells are AWFUL.... EVERYWHERE! Sounds dumb but right now the worst for me is when someone in our office area uses ketchup packets for their food (we have to eat at our desks). I smell even just one ketchup packet for hours unless I take the trash out!
Glad to hear I'm not alone! This is my third pregnancy and this is the worst bought of nose sensitivity I've had. The kitchen is like one big bubble of gross smell for me - I can only be in there for a few minutes at a time! I fear I'm overusing my Scentsy lamp hahaha
