Is it BO or is she just sweating a lot and it kind of smells?

I think I would react okay to my husband saying “hey babe could you put on clean PJs/can we change the sheets, it doesn’t smell great.” (He sometimes asks me to brush my teeth and I do the same.)

Some version of this happened to me after both of my pregnancies. I sweat so much- especially at night- I had to sleep on a waterproof sheet cover in bed. I can’t remember how long it lasted? At the time I was told it was relatively normal. I gained what seemed like a ton of water weight during the end of my pregnancies, and then lost the pregnancy weight very quickly. Could it be something like that, possibly? I also had to switch to a stronger deodorant after my first pregnancy- my body chemistry changed or something.

It was largely temporary.

My wife has some hormone issues that she didn’t have with our the first. She had dealt with body odor and excessive sweating after having our second child. I would like to politely broach the subject but I don’t know how without hurting her.

What is your diet? Are you white?

Ew. Has she seen a Dr?

This is a sensitive and a mine field for men. Women will tell you to be open but these kind of issues they take it to heart. I once had a girlfriend and as I was down on her she smelled absolutely horrible down there. The I instantly got soft and when I told her afterwards she took it so personal..And I said it nicely too. Anyways the relationship was never the same from.yhat point on.

Yes a GF is different from a wife just be very careful how you approach this subject....especially now that she just gave birth. She will put everything you say into the "grievance bag" and a few years down the line your countdown to divorce will start and one of these grievances will be thrown on your fsce

Not a newborn. I think 13 weeks in an infant.

I try to be very polite. I was raised a gentleman. It’s a sensitive and I don’t want to damage her self image or our marriage.

Not everything needs to be tiptoed around. “You have been smelling a bit lately. What can we do to help with this?” Do not give the reasons why she smells as you could be completely wrong. Just help with whatever she needs in order to have it taken care of.

Very fair.

You are married to her and do not know how to talk to her about sensitive issues?

If she’s breastfeeding, get over it.

What are you taking about?

My wife had our second and has had some very unexpected issues like sweating and odor. It's really interfering with our marriage. How do I go about talking to her and not hurting her feelings?
