Question

Answer

Mostly my under arms I know maybe tmi but they get Bad even with deodorant sometimes 😭🤮

Answer

It’s so bad!! I want to shower twice a day. 😓 Yesterday, after my shower, I had my arm raised to put on deodorant, and my husband walked into the room and was like “ugh what smells like BO? Wait, didn’t you JUST shower?!” In the minutes between my shower and putting on deodorant, I started to smell!!!!! Enough for my husband to smell it upon entering the room!!!! 😭

Answer

My underarms, but it's calmed down now since my first pp period. Midwife says it's normal, it's just because out bodies are going through a mini-menopause.

Answer

Yes! Boob sweat and smell too! 🥴

Answer

This was me after my first. But not so much with my second. I was wondering, were those of you who have this smell induced and on pitocin for the majority of labor?? (I’m wondering if it is related, seeing as I only had a tiny bit of pitocin with my second, whereas my first I was on it for like 12+ hours...)
