Yes!! This stuff is amazing! I'm so addicted to it I could almost eat it, but I won't lol. I have just about everything from there that is eucalyptus mint.

Was also going to be my suggestion. But I'm a little biased because my 3-year-old is hoping this one is a kangaroo. She's going to be devastated.

Dr. Bronners makes all natural bar nd liquid soaps in eucalyptus, tea tree and peppermint, for all you ladies with crazy noses they also make a great unscented version for babies. . .

YES! Eucalyptus and Tea Tree. I actually switched to Paul Mitchell Tea Tree Special shampoo because I am so obsessed, LOL. And I carry around a bottle of eucalyptus essential oil.

When pg with my second, I LOVED the smell of tequila. No interest in drinking it, but I would sit there and sniff the f out of it.

I was the same. Smelling Eucalyptus Oil all the time. Washing my clothes in Eucalyptus washing liquid and if I could not get hold of it I chose Pine smelling stuff. I stopped after my son was born but now 8 years later I was using Eucalyptus Oil to try and remove a temporary tattoo from my daughter and I now crave it again. I can live without it but if I put some on a tissue I find myself smelling it several times a day. Don’t know why. I have no theory yet.

It's crazy, so many strong scents drive me batty now (15wks pregnant) and yet, every so often I'll come across something that is equally strong smelling and I can't get enough of it. I agree with the majority, a preference for clean smelling stuff. Except for one particular scented candle from paddy wax brand (I already owned it) and I would say it veers into perfumed smelling...meanwhile, if someone wearing perfume comes into my house, I still smell it in the air/on the furniture 2 days later and am gagging. These are long time friends that didn't just suddenly start drenching themselves, so I know it's just me and my pregnancy nose.

The grocery store...let me tell you, I know which days the meat and fish counter are fresh, and had one unfortunate day when I had to actually hold my breath and run past!

I've been using biofreeze for headaches...and I love the scent. Though I'm sure it makes me smell like an old lady. I assume it is menthol/eucalyptus like based.

Yes!!! Inhaling eucalyptus is like an exquisite pleasure when pregnant for me too. Not my usual like of it either. Totally another level ?

Lemon. All I wanted to do all day was sniff lemons.

Me too. I went crazy over citrus fruit. To relax I'd look at mail order fruit. I've always been a chocolate person but suddenly craved lemon bars that were made at the cafeteria at work.
