Are you craving...
Any smells? Does that make sense? I haven't during my whole pregnancy but all of a sudden just now I got the urge to smell car exhaust or gasoline. Omg...like a huge craving to smell it. So weird ?

Dang it. I am low in iron. I'm gonna start taking iron supplements tomorrow ?
If you are craving the smell of stuff that is really unusual, like chemicals or soap etc., then this is a form of pica, which can signal some sort of nutrient deficiency during your pregnancy. It's usually iron, but being low on anything could cause it. It can signal that you are dangerously low too, so I would talk to your doctor or at least call your OB/midwife's office and talk to them about it so that it can be looked into.
I crave the smell of glade carpet deodorizer. I love to pour it in my hands and just toss it back and forward. Its awesome. But I also found out my iron is low. So I'm sure that is the reason. I just started taking my iron pills today. I hope they work because the smell is just too amazing and smelling it is starting to not be enough. Im scared the next step will be eating it. Yikes
I wanna go turn on my car and just stand there behind it that's how BAD it is ??
I won't though.
My parents' basement ? it's the basement of a 150 year old Victorian house so it's very musty and dare I even say .... dank smelling. Kind of earthy but not too much. And the washer and dryer are down there so there's the faint smell of fresh laundry too. Omg it's heaven. My mouth is legit salivating just thinking of how it smells, wtf? Pregnancy is so weird. I also crave the smell of Pine-Sol but I was obsessed with the smell before I got pregnant so that's nothing new.
Indoor pools so I can smell the chlorine. Outdoor pools just aren't doing it justice
