Shaving???

This is probably the most embarrasing post I have ever posted but I was wondering how many women shave "down there" while they are pregnant. I am unable to see my "down there" now, which makes it hard to shave. I know there are ways such as using a mirror or getting the hubby to help :) but it is still such a hassle. I dont want to be miss bush women when I go into labor but it seems I am going to have to be...Do most women shave or is it best to just let it go!!!?
Thanks

Thank you all for your comments. They were very helpful!! I did attempt to use a mirror the other day and it seemed to work out ok. I didnt go bare or anything just trimmed it up a little. I already feel 100% better :)

Thank you, I am not sure why I didnt think about that. I never used to have the itchy problem, but with being pregnant and things growing faster, I am sure that is what is causing it. THeres definitely nothing else there to cause it. Lol!!!! Thanks again.

my mother told me she used baby oil or baby lotion to help with the itching. She said that baby oil you should be careful with b/c after all it's your most sensitive area. And, that she would choose baby lotion over oil. Sometimes baby powder helped her.

But, it's all up to how you feel about it.
