BTDT Moms: Shaving

I know this question may seem odd but I was reading that they don't require you to shave "down there" before delivering anymore. However it comes recommended that you do for postpartum comfort reasons. So, do I ask to be shaved or should I show up shaved already?

I shaved myself. However, in the delivery room my DH looked at me, then it, then me again and asked if I was trying to shave my initials into it or something.....

This time around I'll use a mirrorChat Icon

I do it myself or have DH do it since it's getting hard to reach and I certainly can't see what I'm doing

They told us in our childbirth class that they dont really do the shaving anymore. As for me, I do it by touch. I dont need fancy designs. Im an all or nothing kind of girl.

Re: BTDT Moms: Shaving

heck no!!! that would not have made recovery any easier!

i did get a wax so i could go to the beach at about 36 weeks. i didn't redo it before giving birth and honestly could have cared less what it looked like.

shaving is itchy when it grows back and i sure as heck would not have wanted to feel itchy along with what else i was feeling! Chat Icon

when you are on that table you don't care what you look like. think about the other stuff that is coming out of you---having trimmed hair is the least of your problems! Chat Icon

I've been doing it myself but I know it's not the neatest of jobs these days. DH offered to do it for me but he's not known for his gracefullness. I guess I'll whip out a mirror and try to work my own magic.
