nair or veet?

I am almost 33 weeks with my third and last. It is getting hard...almost impossible to shave those legs let alone anything else is it safe to use very or Nair hair removal so hopefully I won't have to worry about it as often.

It actually says not to use on genitals and it almost gave me severe chemical burn. Was agony. I'm sure the bikini line and top would be fine but dont.get it near any pink bits. It literally burns your skin. Last pregnancy I just used to shave infrobt of mirror x

Ugh just used the nair down there NEVER again. This is painful and it didn't even get it all. I think I will stick to 30mins of attempting to shave.

I actually have a little hand held mirror I use to put in on down there...I do just a clean up of the top and sides right next to my thigh....the rest I just try to feel for and shave but at 35 weeks 6 days I really almost don't care that much I just my little one out so I can see down there again

I have used for nair and veet for sensitive skin and they are sooo nice to use instead of shaving.....but yeah make sure the room is well ventilated and if you plan is use it down there be careful because the skin is so much more sensitive

I use it, but I always use it in a well ventilated room and use the veet sensitive one. But if you're worried all your midwife!
