mother's or pregnant women only?!!!!?

Question

I am 4 months pregnant and I am having a bit of a dilema .... I am used to being clean shaved all the time ... but my belly is getting in the way. i can't even see down there. what are some techniques that you guys have used ... thanks :)

Answer 1

It gets harder and more uncomfortable to do it, but I just shave blindly (by feel) for the last half of pregnancy. I'm 33 weeks pregnant with my third and managed to keep mostly clean shaven for all three. You may have to hold you breath a little at the end. I'm a short fat woman, so maybe my height helps, but my weight doesn't. Good luck, hope that helps at least a little bit.

Answer 2

I am a clean freak down there too.! I didn't shave at all because of the same reason. When it was very close to the date of delivery I used a battery shaver with one leg on the bathroom counter and looking in the mirror I tried to do the best I could to clean it up. Trust me when you are in labour the last thing you will think about is the hair. I was so worried for the same reason and many more, but really you won't care at all.

Answer 3

I am 15 weeks pregnant and also have the same problem, my husband got me a mirror that goes in the shower and put it at that level for me to look in while shaving. Its a bit hard at first but youll get the hang of it, it's just like a man looking in the mirror to shave there face.

Answer 4

I use the Intuition razor. It has that nice smooth lotion on the blade and it really helps. I hate to say it, but I shave less often now just because of how tiring it is! When I do shave I prop my leg up on the edge of the tub and just hope I get it all, lol. Sometimes my husband helps me out, but luckily my hair has been growing slower since getting pregnant. Good luck!

Answer 5

I used to keep a landing strip but once my belly got in the way I just shave it all off so I didn't have to worry about keeping it straight and I could just go by feel.

Answer 6

I use a mirror, or stand in front of the mirror to see the places my baby belly hides on me.

Instead of trying to sit down to shave your legs.. prop your leg on the toilet and shave that way, its much easier than trying to bend over all the way with a big belly

Answer 7

I pretty much just guessed. After I was done, i took a mirror and did any touchups that needed to be done. I know alot of people are saying let your partner help you.. I never did that. To me its kind of a personal matter. I can see letting him help with shaving the legs when it gets difficult for you but you have to be pretty comfortable to let him shave "down there".

Answer 8

If you want to keep on with the clean shave, you might as your bf/spouse to help you. You have to trust them with a razor though! :)
I'm not sure of what waxing services spas offer, but you can always check into that.
Check with your Dr. about any hair removal creams that might be safe (not sure if there are any).
Good luck!

Answer 9

Many may say ask your partner but they seem to not be all for it so I would continue to do my best as being well groomed. It takes a little longer but try using a mirror or go to a salon and have a wax!

Answer 10

well i dont know if i would trust my man..lol but if you trust yours then that could be an option.but i do know there their is a bikini trimmer out there that will help out A LOT, i think its by noxima and it has little plastic fingers that go across the razors so you cant cut yourself. pregnant or not pregnant these things are awsome. but since you cant see your self..then i would try them.that way your not all tense worried about nipping yourself.
