not sure if this is pregnancy related or im just crazy?

I made lots of onions the other day...and made a casserole and basically ate the whole thing lol. Now everywhere I go, I smell onions! I wake up in the morning and the first thing I smell is onions... Im at the hospital for blood work and I smell onions. I'm sitting in class and I smell onions. And I'm not sure if maybe I've developed a bo from being pregnant.. I'm constantly putting on pit stick because of this! I'm convinced its me.. but when I ask my boyfriend, he thinks I'm crazy. I live with he guy, so I'd hope he'd tell me if I smelt weird or not. I thought maybe it was my breath, but it isn't. I just don't know! I think even before I ate the entire cassorole I was smelling onions... I was convinced it was my sweater last.week. I just don't know... am I just flipping crazy? I'm so self conscious now!

Omg same thing happened to me, I made potato salad and I smelled onions 24/7 every day for about a week until it finally dimmed and went away...it was awful and I was super paranoid that it was me, no matter how many times I showered I smelled onions everywhere and no one else could smell it lol

I think it's a pregnant thing. I had to clean up pee off the floor the other day where my nephew wasn't taught how to properly "aim his junk" into the toilet, and now everywhere I go, I smell hot pisss. It's horrible.

Maybe!? But I don't feel like I'm craving onions! I just don't get it.. it doesn't feel like other cravings.. if it came down to me eating onions, they wouldn't be my top first 10 choices!
