I beleive it has something to do with your hormones,Ask your dr and they might be able to reccomend something that might help.

You probably have what is called BACTERIAL VAGINOSIS. Your doctor can do a pap and determine if that's what it is. But odor and discharge are really the only symptons. It is very common and even a nun could get it. Bath seems to make it worse (which is probably yhe reason I've had it so many times) so try to avoid baths for now, and see your ob doc, they can give you a prescription that will cure it and it is not harmful at all to baby.

Bacterial vaginosis is common in women during pregnancy. This happens when good bacteria does not grow as quickly as the bad bacteria... when women get BV in their first trimester the risk of preterm delivery is higher than when gotten in the second trimester... sometimes the doctor will wait until the second trimester to treat because the med. may not be safe, unless the doc thinks the benifits outweigh the risks.
In some cases the smell may get stronger after intercourse, the bacteria reacts when it mixes with semen... when you take baths you are most likely washing away what little good bacteria you have. my suggestion to you is to visit the dr. asap...
good luck.

It could be be (bacterial vaginois) I hope I spelled that right. Anyway I would talk to your doctor, because if you do have that you can have the baby much sooner. They can treat the problem with medicine. If you have anymore questions you can email me at djd832001@yahoo.com. Go webmd for medical questions it helped alot during my pregnancy

I had the same thing with my last pregnancy...if it is where I think the odour is coming from...it was because the baby's head had dropped and I was getting ready to go into early labour. I ended up going on bedrest and that held her off.
