Probably really tmi, but shaving?

So, I was just wondering how any of yall keep up with shaving your 'area' while pregnant? Or if yall have given up? Lol. I can't see around my belly and I'm kind of scared I'll hurt myself. Any suggestions anybody?

Thanks yall. I'm single and don't really have anyone I would trust to tackle the forest lol. But I'll try the mirror method. If that doesn't work I think I'll just give up lol.

Ive been trying to keep up, mostly only when it gets itchy or uncomfortable. I usually do it by touch and use my fiances trimmer (he doesnt mind) so I know I wont cut myself. That way too I dint get razor burn n I know its all pretty much even

Im 30 weeks and have finally giving up. I tried to do it every 2weeks but it got to hard lol. When Im closer to my due date my mom offered to shave me so it won't look like a forest down there lol tmi. She's probably the only one that id trust to do it.

This may sound weird but it works good if you can sit down in front of a mirror pretty much spread Eagle lol.  That's what I did in our spare room in front of the big closet mirror. It's pretty weird but hey gotta do what you gotta do lol.

I try to keep with every 2wks but recently ive been slipping to every 3. I have a reeeally close friend coming down just before delivery date and she is going to help me take care of that business then lol maybe sounds creepy but I trust this gal and shes one of my greatest friends so I dont see anything wrong with it. I had mentioned it to baby daddy and he was like "youre pregnant who cares" lol but im suuuper paranoid about it

I did last pregnancy and will this one. Honestly I shaved by touch and realized I knew my body better than I thought. I then would have my husband check to make sure I didn't miss a spot.
