I have been terribly addicted to the smell of Windex for years. I use it for everything. At one point I would fold up napkins at work desk and squirt windex into them just so I could smell them. In fact, my brother once caught me sniffing them and told me it was huffing, hehe. I stopped doing that : ) I am pregnant now and oddly the craving isnt as bad. I am very anemic, on iron infusions now as well as Iron supplements. I never want to eat the stuff, just smell it.

Wow, I thought I was the only one! I wash everything down with it and pour it into the sink at night to keep fruit flies away. I know it got worse before i had dd and when she was a newborn. It's bad again as I wait for ds to be born. Everyone walks into my house and says how clean it smells! I have just started to crave peppermint and black peppercorns. The peppermints have to be very strong, like altoids and I chew the peppercorns. I also know this means my anemia is back. I had the same craving a year a go and got an iron infusion. Amy

I usually crave pine so when I am pregnant.  Perhaps you may be pregnant.  I am going through a period where I smell it and just want to smell it always.  Our bodies crave all items and weird items when we are pregnant.

Perhaps you should see if you are pregnant.

Well I am glad I am not the only one with this crazy craving.. I use pine sol daily even if I just fill up the sink or a bucket and wipe a few things down.. OR I just even have to open the bottle and smell it everyone in a while. I go for my 36 wk appt next week so I will bring it up to my Dr then and see if she wants me to get blood work to check my iron.. I kinda had a feeling that it was probably and iron thing.. Thanks everyone!!
