Day 143 – Is my nose turned the wrong way?

Ten weeks, three days. Day 75 in the quest to chase our little miracle

I am in the middle of it…

Yes that is right, i am right smack bang in the middle of the stage when all the symptoms you once wished for come raining down… Honestly it is making me feel like i am in the center of a washing machine on super spin.

I am blessed i truly am, and each time i feel like it is too much, i thank the Lord for all the symptoms i am feeling…

But the one that has me puzzled, the one that really fascinates me, and the one that i can never seem to remember to keep my mouth shut about is smell…

Yes that is right, like all pregnant woman out there i have super smell, sometimes it is ok,  but lately, argh – i can smell EVERYTHING!

So my husband comes home last night, and i couldnt even give him a hug cause he smelt so bad… so he showered… came in for the kill, and yes you guessed it, i turned away for fear of vomiting on my husband… (but dont worry i didnt, like most times i just did the “vomit a little in my mouth and swallow it” thing)

It gets worse..

My poor husband then decided to cook me dinner, fish and salad…

First the fish cooking sent me to another room, then he was cooking bacon for himself, and that sent me out of the house!

These smells are just so intense it is scary…

Yesterday at work a lady was sucking a strawberry throat lozenge, guess who smelt it from the other side of the room?

Guess who knows when bob on the next floor down is drinking his 4th latte for the morning?

And guess who knows that the man who said that he had given up cigarettes is lying?

Thats right.. super smell woman over here!

I can no longer stand the scented soap you wash your hands with, nor the smelly thing that used to be in my car, tuna is out of the question, my husbands socks – barf! And the funniest one of all – myself, yes that is right, at the end of the day i make myself want to vomit…. And my husband assures me that i dont smell – after all i am bathing twice a day…

I think it has to be one of the strangest symptoms, and it makes me wonder why the hormones have that effect?

The best smell in the world is that of the man you love.
