With the oily hair, Yes i've noticed mine getting oill wayyy faster then it normally would, Also washing your hair will only make it worse, you dry your hair out and it thinks it needs to produce even more oil then before because your washing it so much. Try a shampoo specifically for oily hair and only wash it once a day.
And the body odor, yes its the same for me and i'm 9w3d, and i agree with what was said before, that since our sense of smell is heightened that we just notice it wayy easier, my DH says he hasnt noticed it at all but i sure do! haha
Try some lotion on your legs and feet. Try not to scratch it actually makes the itching worse. I had horrible itching for weeks. Lotion worked wonders.
It's good to get in the habit of applying lotion on your body as soon as you get out of the shower and before bed anyways to prevent dry itchy skin and stretch marks. You can't prevent stretch marks totally there genetic if your gonna get them your gonna get them. Lotion will help minimize the ones you do get.
Yup, yup! Totally normal. Though over-washing your hair can also make it oily. Try a special shampoo that will get rid of the buildup.
But the smell? Oh yeah, I totally noticed that deodorant hardly worked for me. I had to use an anti-bacterial body wash, too. I still use it especially after I workout but it was especially wonderful during pregnancy because it helped get rid of the bacteria that can breed and cause even more stink.
ahhhh, thats exactly where I am at! its driving me bonkers...had my boyfriend bring me my hair brush..lol, ive been using it to scratch the itch that I cannot satisfy in my legs!
Approx 4.2% of women experience itchiness in week 4&5. Random fact my pregnancy tracker told me on this site today lol
I haven't noticed pimples or oily skin....yet! lol. Today Ive noticed being itchy.....ALL OVER....especially in my lower calves/ankles/top of feet..not sure if this is normal in first trimester or if its just my skin being weird.
For me it is the oily face. Worst acne ever lol
I figured it is just hormonal, a bit annoying especially since i am so early in my pregnancy.....hopefully both symptoms will go away...
I think noticing the increase in body odor is because you are pregnant and when we are pregnant our sense of smell is highened. Its also super common for your hair to change during pregnancy as well some people get super greasy hair and some people get amazingly nice hair. It all just depends on how your body reacts to your hormones.
it is normal, both of them. I haven't had the body odor personally but I did have the oily hair. Just like all good pregnancy symptoms though this too shall pass lol
