Let's get personal. Are any of you having issues with body odor after delivery?

Question

I feel like I am so stinky especially in the armpit area since the end of pregnancy and now especially at postpartum! If you did have an issue, what fixed it? Did any deodorant work better than the other? Please help. 😥😷

Answer

Oh my gosh yes !!! It's awful. I've tried washing my pits multiple times while in the shower and it doesn't seem to work so I tried switching deodorants and today is the first day but I noticed it isn't as bad. But we will see.

Answer

Yep and it's just finally getting better after 1yr 5months postpartum (was breastfeeding) ...no deodorant worked..I was even using men's deodorant. Now it's not as bad (baby is 18mo) and I can use Secret Outlast and no smell lol

Answer

I figured it was because I don't have time to shower daily now 😜 I try to used baby wipes and reapply deodorant if I don't get to bathe.

Answer

I ended up buying the clinical strenght secret, not the solid, the one that's more creamy and comes out the 3 little waves. Currently I am using a clear gel by the same brand. I never liked the gels but it seems to be working enough. I shower in the morning and at night to  not stink. Before getting pregnant, I put on deodorant every 2 days, especially in winter. Its super cold in WI. I find that I am less smelly thant i was in the begging of my pp journey. Im 14 months pp, hoping to one day go back to how it was :(
