This is a bit gross but does anyone have increased body odour after having a baby?

Question

I’ve never had a problem in my life and I hardly sweat, I could take a shower and go 2 days without reapplying deodorant or showering again and I’d be fine. But ever since I gave birth I’ll layer on the deodorant and after a five minute walk I stink 😭 it’s so disgusting does anyone else have this? And will it go back to normal???

Answer

Okay I’m really glad I saw this post because I thought I was alone. Yes!! 9 weeks pp here and still kind of dealing with this.

Answer

Yup! My doctor said it’s normal- just hormones regulating. So sucky- I didn’t even want to hang out with myself 😅. My husband and  family said they didn’t notice anything.   
It took about 5-6 weeks for it to go away for me, but I still have a ‘stinky day’ every once in a while now (11 weeks pp)

Answer

Omg yes lol I’ve never had this with my other two kids. I also am lacking body hair 🤨

Answer
