Brazilian wax?

Anyone done this at 38 weeks. Not the front, which doesn't bother me, happy to leave a triangle, but ALL of the underneath, back and lips. Have done it a few times and love it for the easiness, smoothness, cleanliness but am a bit scared of doing it at 38 weeks for pain reasons! 2 x paracetamol?

I know there is a trim thread running, but a trim is very different to the full monty.

Anyone?

yup

but i did check first with the salon that they would be okay with them.

As it turned out I had a C-section so very grateful that plastic bic was not needed.

but but but the regrowth came at the time I was in a new baby fog and lucky if I could remember to brush my teeth.

Thanks Zanzi! Was it v painful so late in the game? And the regrowth....are you referring to the essential task of exfoliation for avoidance of itchy nastiness?

Not any more or less painful than usual.
Anything to avoid a dry shave with a plastic bic.
