It usually happens due to the the hormonal turmoil that a mother goes through during pregnancy and in the pueperial phase after the pregnancy. Heightened sense of smell and loss/alteration of taste are also common. It gradually gets back to normal with a few measures that you'll need to do. Consult at your convenience.
