my nose is too strong

edited February 2011 in Pregnant
Lately I have noticed just how strong smells have gotten. Yesterday I had to light a candle in my room because all I could smell was a strong musky smell coming from my boyfriend. I even made him take a shower before coming to bed. Then I woke up in the middle of the night and couldnt go back to sleep because I could smell his breath. I had to put a Pillow over his face to try and stop the smell. This morning I opened the window in my room and when he asked why it was open I said its cuz he smells. Now he's getting offended and taking it to heart. Am I being mean? I haven't made fun I have just told him my nose is sensitive and his smell is strong

  • Lol, I can relate! I swear my husband SMELLS whether he's just showered & its his cologne I can't handle (I used to LOVE his cologne), or whether its his morning breath, or his FARTS! I used to be able to handle it... but nowadays its just too much to bare. I tell him & try not to get mad but sometimes its hard, especially the farting, I mean come on... just leave the room! It seems the angrier I get, the funnier he thinks it is! I haven't come up with any solution ... just make sure your bf knows your not trying to be mean but that your just very sensitive to smells right now. Lol. Good luck!:)
  • Just find something that smells good on him. Lol. I have 3 sons already and they used to smell awful, heck everything smelled awful. It will ease up, give it some time. Good luck
  • I had to throw away some candles and the hand soap! I cant stand when my husband leaves the dog food bag open!!!
  • Omg my mom works at a retirement home and this little old lady came in her office and she had sooo much perfume on that I ran out right to the athroom it was horrible! Lol
  • I got rid of my kitten cuz she peed everywhere and I can still smell her pee on everything. Even things I've washed! Luckily for me, my hubby has the opposite of silent but deadly farts, they're loud and rarely smell. One of his teeth is rotten, so his morning breath is atrocious!!!

  • Try making a joke put of it. Tell about all the stupid things you can smell now. Make some stuff to try to male him laugh even. Maybe if he can laugh at your silliness he won't be offended.

    That being said, do you know ridiculous I look trying to clean up after my dogs when I walk them? I gag and dry heave while I pick up the poop, and the entire way to the poop bin. I even hold the damn bag at arm's length! At least the dogs poop near the disposal bin.
  • Haha oh man I guess I'm lucky for not having sum of those smelly problems haha. I do think tho that boyfriends/husbands should not be aloud to FART anywhere near the pregnant woman! It should be illegal. I mean how hard is it to leave the room at least geez!
