Pregnancy brings about many awkward feelings along with the excitement and happiness – one of them is the heightened sense of smelling. During pregnancy most of the mothers complain of this odd sensitivity about smell; the odours that they loved once start annoying them – it can be of anything foods, flowers or perfumes. This is caused by high levels of the hormone estrogen that affects the olfactory senses. Many doctors also say that this is associated to the hormonal changes that also cause morning sickness.
Pregnancy does not treat all equally, thus the level of smelling power cannot be determined at one go! However, this has been proved that pregnant women can smell any strong odour much faster and deeper in every sense. The smells that were their favourite once can also turn out to be awful. While the reverse action is also possible, many pregnant women are seen to love smelling lemons.
This trait is not at all harmful until it causes you severe nausea and headache; so it’s better you stay off strong smelling objects while pregnant. Again, please note that some pregnant women have not experienced this kind of smelling sensation at all!
