Hairy and pregnant

Is anyone else pregnant and hairy?
It's the little hairs that I'd like to pretend I don't have and just pluck up - the odd one on my chin, belly button etc.. But now there seem to be lots more of them. A furry bump is not a great look...hormones or I'm just becoming gross and totally unsexy?

Haha u sound exactly like me!! I have always suffered from the odd hair because I am quite dark but now they are everywhere!! I look the bearded lady if I don't pluck them every morning but by the next day they are back!!
And my bump had suddenly in the last couple of weeks started growing hairs as well!! Guess its one part of pregnancy they just don't tell u about! Xx

I'm not sure if I'm the only one (I hope not!) but even before I fell pregnant I've been having a few hairs grow around my nipples Confused some are quite thick and dark and I've been plucking them out. I was on the pill previously but I hate itHmm

I had scary tummy hair, but all went at about 20wks thankfully!

Due anyday now and my head hair has got thicker and thicker and am sporting a very wig-like do.... Confused

Thanks ladies
k8ee I tot found some scary hair on my nipples - how on earth do they get so long before I notice them? I'm 16 weeks is hopefully will all fall out and become super smooth soon.......? In the meantime I'm trying to Sistine using my epilator as that would be an omission of full on hairiness and just picking with the trusty tweezers.

I'm 21 weeks and covered in blonde hair. Luckily I'm not dark. I'm 21 weeks pregnant with a little boy... Maybe it's the testosterone causing it Wink

My tummy is hairy.

I've always had the odd thick dark hair around my belly button which I pluck but now my whole belly is covered in light downy hair (which isn't too bad I suppose!)

I really hope it goes after birth though!

Glad I'm not the only one I'm only 14 weeks along and my legs, armpits and lady garden are growing wild, I have to shave my armpits every day and everything else every other day or I look and feel like a gorilla! No one warned me pregnancy would turn me into a yeti!

Yeah, my nipple hairs have gone a bit crazy. The rest is pretty wild too! Luckily I quite like the fuzziness, because there's no way I'm bothering to remove all that before I have to!
