Everyday I see posts about women’s 🐱 smelling like fish

Very glad to know I’m not the only one 😂 I’m awaiting a doctors appointment just to confirm that it’s BV but does anyone know of anything that helps with the odour? Should I stop letting my husband cum in me? I always pee after sex but should I shower too?

I've noticed my 🐱 smells off the morning after my husband finishes inside. I wouldn't really say it smells like fish but definitely smells like sex. Could try to have him not finish inside and see if it helps. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

yeah I’ve noticed it smells different after too! I saw a woman post here that if your man cums inside you a lot you should also take probiotics to help with the ph balance and ever since I read that I’ve been noticing that “smell”. Literally thought it was just me experiencing that

I definitely experience it. My husband cums inside me about every night. I'm gonna expose myself for a second... I kinda like the smell. I'm a cum slut and the smell reminds me of it. 😅 it's not like a bad smell. It's just not normal vagina smell.

oh I don’t get that every night 😅 I guess that’s why I was able to notice the different smell. Thank you for making me feel like I’m not alone

No problem girl. 😊 I'm glad to help.

This literally happens to me any time he cums in me, is it something wrong with him or me? Both or neither? I start feeling very insecure because I know I don’t normally smell like that and it honestly drives me insane. I remember when I was pregnant and he told me my vagina stunk so I didn’t have sex with him for a long time after that. But we now have sex every so often again and now everytime we do, I start to smell it again and it turns me off. I know if I smell it he can too and I just don’t need him making me feel like I’m dirty or something bc I’m far from it but it’s so discouraging.

Boric acid suppositories but first just make sure it’s not bv or anything else.

Ladies ladies yes we are the ones who suffer the most on this planet from monthly periods to pregnancy and to have to deal with a off balanced ph in the vajayjay sucks. What worked for me might not work for you but I use chlorophyll in my water and use only water to wash with no soap,pee after sex and boric acid suppositories not everyday though. I hope you all get some relief soon.

I am aware of that, and I already do that. I actually wash myself and then don’t even put underwear on until the next day so my vagina gets some air. It’s the smell during the sex that I’m talking about trying to get rid of.

omg this happened to me all the time when I was pregnant I just thought it was my increased sense of smell just playing tricks on me 😅 now that I’m not pregnant and we have sex I smell it more and the following day as well

thank you for letting me know that it’s not just me

I always pee after sex since I’m so prone to UTIs but I think maybe it’s the fact that I do it right away and sperm still leaks out afterwards. I’ll look into boric acid and probiotics when I have my doctors appointment. Thank you for letting me know ☺️

I’ve taken chlorophyll pills in the past and I broke out into hives 😅 definitely going to ask about boric acid at my doctors appointment coming up. Thank you for your advice

Literally sameeee! I’ve noticed when I don’t wear underwear for the rest of the night afterwards the smell really isn’t there in the morning but it drives me insane while in the middle of getting busy lol and even when I pee after and I can smell it, I just hate that smell and I’ve honestly never had this problem before my bd so idk 🤷🏽‍♀️ part of me thinks it’s him honestly.

Am I just fucked?

I need a new car. I purchased my current honda civic in 2024 after my car was totaled in an accident. Seemingly there was nothing wrong with it. I went alone to the dealership because my dad lived out of state and my bf wasn’t available anyways. Couple months down the road, the cars sensors start going berserk. We got it checked at the honda dealership and with our own family known mechanic and no problems came up. It was just wack. Fast forward to know, the car has about 155k miles. We bought it at 125k, I know STUPID CHOICE. Here’s why i’m ultra fucked though. I’ve been a SAHM for the last year, my baby is 7 months old. I’m starting a part time job next month but literally at 10 hours a week. That’s the most I can do as I do not want to put my baby in daycare and do not have any family that can watch him for an extenuous amount of time everyday.

Besides the fact that the honda civic is kind of uncomfortable to fit the huge car seat, the stroller snd stroller seat attachment. which i don’t wanna have to repurchase and buy a smaller one. The car is SHIT. The car runs weird right off the bat anyone will say that when they drive. The engine light is on. There must be a hole or something in the AC unit because the AC is broke and everytime we put the AC gas in it it ends up leaking within 1-2 weeks. AC gas is kinda expensive to be refilling it that often. My dad doesn’t think I should put any money into this car to fix it. We still owe about 3k. We want to trade it in however my parents think that I should get a NEW car since this used car gave us such bad faith. Mind you, when I got it and for a couple months after, none of these problems were there :/ I drove from NJ to BOSTON a few months after getting it and the emergency sensors went off and the car was shaking bad and i had to pull over. Never found out what that was about.

I have 5k to put down. BTW, my parents are heavily involved because i’m 24 and I live with them (me and my bf) in hopes to move out when we have the funds for that. I don’t wanna ask my BF for any money. I know he’ll just throw it back in my face down the line during an argument because he thinks a paycheck is the extent of his contribution as a partner and father. Whole other story. My parents can’t afford to throw any money at a new car. My dad thinks I should get a new car that’s relatively recent like 2023+. Not for the aesthetic but because he thinks insurance rates might be better for a newer vehicle. They want me to ask my BF to contribute since it would be a family car for us. That he would also be able to ride around in when he’s not driving to work in his own car. I dont wanna downgrade to just 1 car because he goes into work incredibly early and I dont wanna have to wake my baby up at 4am and take him to drop his dad off. I also just need my own car because Im starting a part time job soon. I could just use my part time dollars to pay it off but what if I’m stuck with a car note in the event anything happened with this job? My bf and his family suggested we buy a car from enterprise because it’d always gone well.. however i told him there’s a lot of risk in buying a RENTAL CAR. and he said there’s also a lot of risk in buying a used car from a dealership. He said you’re NOT getting a new car. a new car to me isn’t about the aesthetics, it’s about the security that we wont have the same issue we’ve had with the used car i bought in 2024 which was seemingly great when we first got it.

Anyways, I don’t drive my car anymore. Because of all its sensors and issues. But it’s not practical to keep having to use my parents car to get around. I don’t know what to do, if there is anything TO do. Seems like i’m just backed into a corner. My honda is just losing value as it sits in the drive way, already is very low value due to the shit miles it has.

I get I should just maybe lean on my BF as he did agree to help with the down payment and the car note but I just don’t want to. He will throw it back in my face. That’s for certain. I also don’t wanna make a poor financial decision that’s gonna effect me and my baby in the long run.

Baths while pregnant

I’ve had baths throughout my pregnancy. I don’t want advice on that. I wondering how other women who have baths while pregnant lay in the bath? Is it considered laying on your back? I’m 5’6 so my feet just touch the end 😂

Mama friends

Hey y'all I wanted to see if there were any other mamas here in TX that need more mama friends I'm out in Lubbock

Need more friends!

Hi Ladies, if I’m being honest making friends has always been a struggle of mine. Being straightforward and honest , I’ve slowly experienced myself turning into that girl that only hangs out with her husband and honestly I’m getting bored of him lol . Looking for open-minded , understanding women who aren’t afraid to be themselves. Im looking for women who can teach me things and be open to learn new things by doing things outside of their comfort zones positively of course. Simply looking for sister-ships , for family.

Besties

Looking for friends! I don’t really have many friends or really anyone I talk to and would love to find a bestie! I’m a stay at home mom full time to my 6 year old and 2 month old boy mom in Oklahoma!

need advice (long post)

I’m 8 months with my first baby. Her dad and I are still together. for a little bit of context, we’ve been together for almost 2 years now and this past year he struggled a lot with his mental health and living out of his car for the entire year. I live with my mom. He had a job most of the year other than a three month period Where he was unemployed. He is almost 10 years older than me and I am currently a still a student in college. When I found out I was pregnant he was against keeping her because of our financial situation but I did not want to terminate the pregnancy. He started working a new job beginning of this year that pays 70k he had to move a few hours away for it. The situation I need advice on is that I have given him a total of $7000 in the past year to help him when he’s really needed it. I am unemployed so a lot of the money has been taken out of my savings. I have no problem helping someone who needs it but it’s gotten to the point where I feel like he’s very unappreciative that I help him and starting to take advantage. He has sent me a total of $500 for things for the baby. But even still ask me for money here and there. I gave him my credit card information so he could use it to sign up for a storage unit that he told me would just be a one time thing and now it continues to charge me monthly and he still has not paid me back for that or turned it off, he also started using my credit card for some thing that he says his work is going to reimbursed him for, but he never even asked permission to use it for this. He still is living out of his car. He then does little things that upset me like accumulating parking tickets which I get happened sometimes but him not being more mindful and cautious so he doesn’t have to spend more money is kind of annoying to me or the other night when he was talking about signing up for a gym membership that is $200 a month. I don’t know if I’m just being greedy or something but I have this baby coming and I’m running out of money. Thankfully my mom is helping me a little bit with buying her things but it’s just upsetting and I don’t know what to do.
