I am 32 weeks pregnant, and lately I've been loving the smell of Purell's hand sanitzer. I don't know what it is and why I like it so much..

I am worried that I may be hurting my baby? Could I be?

Like you want to constantly smell it? Sounds like a form of Pica. You should bring it up to your OB, there may be something vital missing from your diet that can help with this. Sometimes a vitamin deficiency.
