18 weeks pregnant, constantly smell like garlic?

Question

So the title basically says it. I’m not eating any more or less garlic than previously, and I shower daily. It’s not like my pits or anything that actual smell, but my skin literally smells like garlic and I’m so confused. I even went a week without eating garlic and it’s still here.

Answer

you’re not alone! i constantly smell onions/garlic. i don’t remember when it started but now, I smell like that almost daily. i can’t come in contact with those actual foods because the smell is too much. i just wash up extra well and use lotion to mask the scent, but it comes back. it may be a change of Ph balance in our bodies.

Answer

Yes! It's onions for me and it actually got worse postpartum. It does get better once hormones balance out though.

Answer

Hormones make funky smell. I would avoid all garlic for now.

Answer

My sweat smells like onions. I shower twice daily because of it. 
It’s so gross. And definitely only since being pregnant.

Answer

Same happened with me, but with onions. Drove me crazy.
