Absolutely normal! My mum usually will cook simple stir fry vegetables with garlic for our meals but during my 1st trimester I couldn’t stand the smell. I was ok with the smell from 2nd trimester onwards.

Very normal. I can’t stand the smell of oil. Any kinds of oil or even food cooked with oil. Can’t go near malls, hawker, coffee shops, food areas and even own kitchen. I stayed in room throughout.

normal! I can't stand of my neighbour's cooking at my second trimester. totally annoyed my nostrils hehe

Perfectly normal! Your sense are heightened and particular smells can trigger nausea.

totally normal, in fact I can't stand the smell of cooking throughout my pregnancy
