Brazilian wax?

So sorry for the tmi but i have always been well kept downstairs, i haven't had a wax since i was 20wks i am now 35wks and i feel the need to primp. Especially because i feel like my little man will be here early and i want to feel pampered and fresh when it is time to push, and a maybe it will be better for my doc and nurses they wont have to worry about searching pass a jungle to spot my baby...lol i would like to know how you moms feel about this? Thank you for your feedback

I did it through this whole pregnancy and before. I never Noticed it hurting more while pregnant. But I did get more brushing for a day after. I'm assuming since more blood flow.

I don't think the obstetricians are going to care so much about it, lol but definitely do what makes you feel good! I personally shave but since its harder to see down there it doesn't get done as frequently. You could always go get your wax now, and then shave in between if it gets a little hairy??

I don't think there's anything wrong with it though it may hurt more just because your skin is usually more sensitive while you're pregnant. I'd say if you're going to someone you know and trust since it's something you do normally, and they know you're pregnant, I don't see why you couldn't. Although I will say it's a personal choice for you. The doctors won't be looking at that and you won't be thinking about it during labor lol. But I say it's good to pamper yourself during the pregnancy.

I've seen previous posts about this and I'm pretty sure lots of ladies do this. I keep mine trimmed and shaped. The pubic hair is known to help prevent infections but if this isba normal thing you've been doing I say go for it...especially if it makes you feel better and more confident.
