During first tri I was super sensitive to smells. Everything made me sick. It's gotten much better over time but there are still certain smells I can't stand.

The last few days it seems to be kicking up again and every time I smell something strong I get sick.

A couple of weeks ago I made some shredded bbq beef in a crock pot. The smell didn't bother me at all. I am making it again today and now I can't sit in the living room. I start dry heaving as soon as I smell it.

Is this normal? Can my body just decide what it likes and what it doesnt so I can get used to it and move on? This constant fluctuating is really pissing me off.
 
I still have strong aversions to food and smells and feel naseaous at least 3-4 days a week. I haven't noticed it getting worse, I just know that it's usually greatly improved by now, but this pregnancy it's still going strong. :(

I hope you're feeling better soon!
 
Mine is super strong. DH had to stop wearing a particular aftershave as it was making me heave. Poor hubby :(

Also the smell of milk. DH tipped out some milk that was not even off, just on it's use by date and just knowing what he was doing sent me vommitting.

It's the strangest thing. I'm like a sniffer dog!!! But I've always believed it's the way we were made to protect us and our babies from bacteria and toxins.
 
Definitely...dh had to bin his shampoo this week. Could smell it everywhere, including on his pillow. It had to go!
 
I think I'm even farther on than most of you commenting and I feel like this too! I also still vomit several times a week and have reluctantly accepted that the smells and sickness may just stay around :(

Last night I SWORE oh smelled of onions. It was so gross!
 
I still have this also, not as bad as before but it's still there. Hope you feel better!
