how sensitive is yours?

My sense of smell is extremely sensitive. I can smell water! From like a water bottle. And the smell of water makes me sick! I'm 28 weeks and 1 day. And before pregnancy I had three surgeries on my nose bc I broke it really bad. And I permanently lost my sense of smell till now. It's so weird smelling things after going 3 years without! I'm missing half my septum and all of my bone has been replaced with the septum and my sinuses have been burned bc of the damage of when I broke it. Who would've thought pregnancy would give me back the horrible gift of smelling! Haha
