I have the same problem.   Except im being induced in 2 days.   I didn't want a bush.  I cut the mess out of my area down there.  It happened last night and it's still bleeding.  Good luck.

I literally just veeted and I feel fab! And i do it abouy every 2 weeks!  And have for years and they make it for sensitive areas! But don't leave it on longer the 6 min!  No hairy spots and everything is smooth and amazing!

I'm pale with dark hair, laser didn't do squat even after 5 treatment, still grew back. But it was on a different body area.
I figure grown women grow pubic hair. I don't need to look like a litlle girl

I just wax up to bikini line, doesn't hurt much - a lot less that what will becoming out your vag soon

I wouldn't recommend Veet, it is not meant for these areas and I wouldn't put harsh chemicals on my ladyparts when I am pregnant.
Shaving, well if you are unable to complete the task and your husband is unable/unwilling, I would maybe go for waxing.
Although, when I used to wax it wasn't ideal.. you spend 3weeks beeing smooth and nice and then its growing out and itching and then you have to give it some length to be able to wax again.
To me it just felt like you ended up spending more time being hairy than smooth.
I say IPL, it removes it permanently and you never need to worry about shaving or waxing again.
But I do not know if IPL is safe during a pregnancy.
Word of caution, IPL hurts like a mother. If you thought waxing was bad, well.. it's nothing compaired to IPL.
I think they have a new kind of lazer that is supposed to be pain-free, but slightly more pricy.
I had the regular suffer and go with the pain IPL so I donno if the pain-free one actually works.

Also btw, if you are blonde IPL will not work.
It works best on dark hair.

Waxing hurt like a ***** for me and when I shaved I cut myself like 4 times. So I'm just letting it grow. I don't even care anymore lol

I've had my boyfriend help. He was SUPER gentle. It was either that or destroy my vagina like I did before and be in pain. I dont like waxing and I'm not sure of hair removal. So... till then, if I dont want hair, I have to suck it up and let him do it.

Waxing is your best bet,  hair removers have chemicals in them that aren't safe.

If having pubic hair really bothers you, just go and get a brazilian wax. It takes 6-8 weeks for the hair to grow back.
