We all know that our baby smells so good. Do you wonder why? Two words: No Sweat. The apocrine glands which are found in the armpits, breast, and groin and are associated with strong body odor, aren't active in puberty. Another reason she smells so good to may be because her scent is familiar. Each of us has our own odor print. Moms have been known to recognize their newborn by scent alone. One theory for this phenomenon: Olfactory cues from her baby may be circulating in Mom's bloodstream during gestation, giving her an early exposure.
