Yep. I got that around 30 weeks with both pregnancies. It drove me insane but went away after birth both times.

It's called pica. I craved pine-sol and dish washing detergent and bleach smells. My ob said its ok as long as I don't want to drink or taste them.

it is driving me insane lol

It's called Pica. I craved the smell of pinesol and loved eating ice. I was on iron pills and they didnt help.

I craved the smell of tennis balls, new shoes, and air conditioning. Probably a bit safer than your cravings. Just don't indulge!

Yeah I remember getting to the point that I felt like I could just drink dish soap. lol I was told as long as you don't eat or drink anything though you're fine, and it's relatively normal.

of sniff them 24/7 lol I am constantly wiping my desk at work and I wash my clothes way more frequently .. I look forward to washing my dishes now, lol I guess that's a good thing  
I always thought pica was only when you wanted to eat them lol

I really wish I didn't feel like this.. I don't sniff on them to the point it can be dangerous but I still feel really aweful for doing it even if it's not a lot  

Laundry detergent and any lemon scented cleaner. I've been doing laundry like every day. I got some lemon essential oil that I put in the wax warmer and I wash the laundry with.

*raises hand* I never had this w the boys either..I asked my OBGYN today he said it was fine as long as I don't have the desire to eat anything that I like to smell lol. & I don't sit there and sniff cleaning products all day..I just smell them while I'm using them lll. Lemon Clorox disinfecting wipes smell amazing!  

My "thing" right now is my gain dryer sheets. Omg they smell so damn good.

I've gone through so many of those wipes lol.

Me too!! I eat ice like crazy and pixie sticks because I crave grainy stuff.... like carpet dirt, dryer lint, and laundry soap it's called Pica, it should go away after you have the baby.
