Morning sickness, bionic nose & cloth nappies

Hello girls. I have started DD on cloth a couple of months ago and am loving it. However, I am now pregnant and am having some issues. For a couple of weeks I had a mild case of morning sickness (didn't have it with DD at all) but this has now improved a lot. But I still have a bionic nose and am extremely sensitive to smells. I can deal with dirty nappies. I spray the room with Orange Power orange oil room freshener first and turn on the fan before attempting to change a dirty nappy. It does seem to help. My main problem is when it comes to washing them. I wash every second day. I don't really want to wash more often because that would mean small loads which are not efficient. But the urine smell that comes out of the bucket seems really overpowering. I just can't handle it. Is there anything I can do?
I also think that DDs urine (and my own) seems really smelly lately. Sorry if that's tmi. But I seem to remember that happeing during early pregnancy with her, too. We both drink lots of water, so it's not that it's too concentrated because of that. DH has also noticed her nappies being smellier, so it's not just my sensitive nose...

I hope I can find something to help as it is really putting me off using cloth for now. but I don't want to go back to 'sposies.
Gotta go, DD is screaming for my attention.
Thanks, Saša

Please please please help me. I can't handle it anymore! This morning, DD smelled like a public toilet in a trainstation. Even before taking the nappy off, it made me gag. DH too, so it's not just me. I don't know why the urine smell is so strong lately....
I really don't want to stop cloth, but if it keeps going like this, I just can't do it!

I know gigi recommends a wash with vinegar and bicarb for stinky nappies :hug:

And for the opening the bucket stench - nappy stores sell bucket deodorisers so that may help. Or a quick rinse before pailing?

Thanks Mel. I'll try the rinsing. And I think for now I will just have to wash every day. I'll feel a bit guilty about it regarding water waste, but I have a very efficient front loader, so that eases my guilt a bit.
The nappies aren't stinky once they're washed. They're also pretty new still. I might have to have a look at those deodorisers.
I'm usually really tough when it comes to these things. So I find it really hard to understand, why I can't use my mind to ignore the smells. I feel a little apthetic, really.
I also noticed over the last few days that DD has really dark green poos. She seems healthy, though. They are of her usual consistency.
I mentioned before that we both have smelly urine (sorry if TMI). I just thought I'd mention that I still BF her. Is it possible that it is caused by hormones that I'm passing to her via BM?

Dunno too much about that. Is she teething though?
