Body Odor

I am 32 weeks pregnant and within the last week have started to notice that I smell. My under arms smell and no matter how many times I shower or how much deoderant I apply, I stink. Is this a normal pregnancy thing or something unrelated?

It gets stronger after the baby is born.  Probably so the baby knows your smell since they don't see well.
