Suddenly every smell is bothering me, even my husband's perfume and cooking smell se ulti type feeling. Im only like 5 weeks. Is this a thing so early or just me being weird?
Ho na, early pregnancy mein hi start ho jata hai, around 1st or 2nd month. Mujhe toh kitchen mein tadka lagne ki smell se hi problem hone lagti thi, simple khana banana padta tha.
According to the pregnancy tracking apps, smell sensitivity peaks between week 6 and week 12 due to rising estrogen. Tracking it really helped me understand when my nausea would start.
It usually starts in the first trimester itself. If it gets so bad that you can't eat anything and feel weak, please check with your gynac. They can give safe remedies for nausea.
In my personal experience, it started in my 6th week and lasted till the end of the first trimester. The smell of onions cooking was my biggest trigger.
Beti, this sensitivity usually starts in the first month itself. Try smelling fresh ginger or keeping a small piece of green cardamom in your mouth to feel better naturally.
For most women, it kicks in right around week 6. I literally couldn't stand the smell of my husband's perfume or coffee starting from the second month itself. It's totally normal.
