Lots of questions

I dont know how else I can say this. I am 12 weeks and I have noticed I am a little stinkier then I have ever been vagianlly and I guess every where else. Is this normal? I can't stand it :/
My poor husband :( I cant handle one bit the way he smells. His breath literally makes me so sick. Its hard to lay next to him or have sex. I haven't been able to kiss my husband romatical in 9 wks. This has broken my heart.. Does it get better soon or has anyone experienced this?
I dont think there is anymore room for my baby. I guess what I mean is that it feels like if I am not laying down it feels crammed down in my pelvic area. I know this week the baby should have moved up already. Is this normal or should I do something? The only reason why I ask is that we are moving back from Alaska to Tennessee and driving just plainly *****. If I am not totally horizontal I feel cramps.
I guess I have a lot of questions and I will be sitting down with my doctor soon. I have had an ultrasound and blood work and everything is fine. Thanks for the help!

I felt the exact same way at 12 weeks. My husband's breath made me gag, and I couldn't kiss him without holding my breath. I'm 19 weeks now, and the baby is still kind of low, and it feels like she's bouncing on my bladder most of the time. Don't worry, it'll get better (at least that's what I tell myself). And if it doesn't get better, at least it's only temporary :)

The issue with smells is definitely hormone related. And personal smell is also hormone related. Try changing soaps. I had to do that during my last pregnancy. I had used this particular soap for years and then suddenly, to me, it made me stink. The issue should subside on its own soon. As for being comfortable, it's probably an issue with the fact that the baby is getting bigger and ur uterus is stretching and organs r moving to accommodate. U'll probably get used to it soon and/or u'll figure out how to sit in a manner that may not b cozy but will make due. I've had to start leaning further back to sit or sit almost like a guy in that I have to spread my legs further apart and kinda let my belly hang. Sitting cross legged works sometimes too but only for a little while for me.

Hormones are the reason for all the extra body odors. As for the sensitivity to smell I had that with my previous two pregnancies. I was lucky and it subsided after a few weeks. Good luck .
