To wax or not to wax, or shave?

Hey ladies, These are the things that keep me up at night...Chat Icon Are you planning on waxing the nether-regions for those weeks you are expecting? Is it even possible or advisable to shave that day you go into labor...or do you just not care at all what is happening down there as long as the they get that baby out asap!!??

By the way...I've only waxed once, like 5 years ago... and haven't since...should I even attempt that at 9 months???

Re: To wax or not to wax, or shave?

A few weeks ago, I had a bikini wax and it really hurt. It had been a while since I had one done. As much as it hurt, I was happy with the results. I'll probably continue waxing throughout the pregnancy.

Re: To wax or not to wax, or shave?

i have waxed everything down since getting married (7/07) and i def. plan to keep up the routine.
i do like how clean and tidy things are..

i got a waxing around 10weeks pregnant and it was fine! i plan to go again this friday and i am 17wks.

I go to completely bare spa in the city. it is expensive ($75 a session) but sooooooooo worth it!! they use a thicker harder wax that adheres to the hair, not the skin. i would say the most painful time was the first time and then there was a time in between when i didnt go for a while and it hurt like a b*tch! but its been fine ever since!!

Chat Icon Chat Icon The funniest thing is he offered after I was complaining about how I hadn't shaved there in so long. I guess you get to a point in your pregnancy that you don't care how it's done, as long as it gets done!! Chat Icon
