Anything i can do to end this hyper-sensitivity to smells during pregnancy?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Avoidance, incense: The best way, of course, is to avoid the offending odor in the first place. Prevention is a good second choice -- if you can find a pleasing candle or incense to mask bothersome odors. Stories abound of pregnant women wearing garlic cloves as a necklace to cover over bad smells!
