Okay First weird hormonal smell aversion of my wife's pregnancy

[underpants]

Last night after finishing eating dinner (Lo Mein where have you been all my life?) I had some chocolates and then something to top it off.

My wife suddenly started half puke gagging "Oh my God what the hell are you eating?!?!"

The answer?

Usually we get Klausens so maybe it is just the brand.

Very strange we hadn't had any such reactions to that point.

1. Exhaust fumes from buses was my biggie...

:puke:

2. Aftershave and peanut butter

an older woman told us that she couldn't stand either of those in both of her pregnancies. She told us this at a wedding two weeks ago.

17. I couldn't stand the smell of peanut butter, either.

Anything cooking in a microwave set me off, too. Didn't matter what it was.

3. Pregnancy nose is how I knew I was pregnant w/ my second child.

I kept smelling fish at Easter dinner. Turned out the smell was from the dye in my grandmother's scarf. Enjoy the hormonal rollercoaster!:hi:

11. A co-worker just told me that another co-worker's wife ..........

found out that way too. They were eating seafood at a restaurant when she became suddenly very :puke: . Two days later they officially found out they were preggo.

4. Coffee. Couldn't abide the smell of coffee, which I loved then & do again.

[July]

27. Me, too. Coffee and garlic, two of my favorites. nt

5. Believe it or not, coffee did it for me.

I choked each cup down, though, even though it was gagging me. I cannot do without my coffee. The worst of it was over in a couple of months, thankfully.

My ex-SO also wore this god-awful cologne, some kind of Calvin Klein Eau de Cow Piss, that would actually cause me to leave the room. It took several bouts of sickness before he got it through his big fat head that I could not stand that cologne!!! :grr:

10. My wife gave up all caffiene the minute the second pink strip showed up

She hasn't had any since then and she loved her some Starbucks Frappa-rappa-chinos!!!

She gets to have one before our nest ultrasound appointment (3/16).

25. ultrasound is so cool

great to see the little one. And it is so much more sophisticated than when I had my son.


when I had morning sickness, all I could eat was eggs and potatoes, for some reason. And peppermint gum stopped that gagging feeling.

19. Coffee smelled like tunafish when I was pregnant.

Weird.

[Bunny]

28. Wow - double yuck.

Tunafish and coffee smell, to a pregnant woman, is pure hell!

[redqueen]

6. No weird cravings yet?

Hope the nausea passes soon. :)

[underpants]

9. Nope not really

Pretty normal type stuff right now.

[luvLLB]

7. tuna fish.........

[Bouncy Ball]

8. I threw stuff for chili in the crock pot one morning around 7 am

then I took a nap a bit later. When I woke up, the entire place smelled of homemade chili, which made me gag and run out of the house. I took a very long walk.

LOL, you never know what is going to set that off.

[AlCzervik]

12. the scent of coffee and bagels made me feel so sick

my poor grandparents, every Sunday we had breakfast with them, table loaded with jewish food and there i sat with a hankerchief over my nose.

[CatWoman]

13. Thruout my entire pregnancy

I threw up EVERYTHING. I mean EVERYTHING.

Even iced tea!!!!

the only foods I could keep down were blue crabs and watermelon.

Ain't that a kicker??

[underpants]

15. (clears throat)

Watermelon?

LOLOLOLOL

[CatWoman]

16. yes, watermelon!!!!

as soon as I gave birth, I dove into red meat heaven :D

[Pithlet]

18. Ice cream and Taco Bell, for me

I NEVER eat Taco Bell. But, with both my pregnancies, it's all I ever wanted to eat, and it never made me sick. That, and ice cream were the only things I could count on to never make me sick.

[MissB]

14. Bathrooms, even my own, were my downfall

And public bathrooms. Ugh.

I still have a very sensitive nose (and a very clean bathroom).

[matcom]

20. Sperm??

:D

:bounce:

[GreenPartyVoter]

21. Canned garlic, raw meat (esp burger)

[phusion]

22. That's funny...

Apparently my mom LOVED pickles and ice-cream when she was pregnant with me.

Go figure...

[Arugula Latte]

23. Toothpaste made me gag when I was pregnant.

I brushed my teeth anyway.

Also, I couldn't stand the smell of Mexican or Middle Eastern food, which I normally love.

[Nay]

24. Leather. I couldn't get in a car with leather seats, or go in a feed

store (leather saddles, etc.) Made me absolutely hurl.

[sbj405]

26. I gagging over the thought of eating a pickle after chocolates
