If you wax just get someone to do it. That's what I have done at the later pregnancy stages.

I used a mirror to shave and still missed loads Blush DH had to tidy me up Grin

Get it done for you. I found waxing best so when pregnant treated myself to a session at the beauticians

I found that waxing also lasts longer in pregnancy so had to go only once every 6/7 weeks instead of my 3/4 weeks it's lasts normally

I've never been waxed before, is it supposed to be more painful during pregnancy?

I just use veet although I've done a terrible job of it today, I swear I can see less and less of my body every day.

If it's just a straight forward bikini line the you may be ok but I probably wouldn't start waxing in pregnancy when you have never had it done. I haven't found it more sensitive but then I've been doing it for years. Your could get your dp to help you like rubber duck did lol.

I've just told him he's going to have to help me next time and his response was "absolutely not" Grin I think a mirror might have to do!

God help him having to watch a baby come out of there if he can't even help me with a bit of cream Grin

I didn't find it more painful until I had the "pre labour complete and utter no hair down there wax"

It was worse than the EMCS I ended up having.

If you do want to start waxing in pregnancy I would go to someone who knows what they are doing and take some Metanium and Baby Power for afterwards, when you're getting dressed put on a little Metanium then talc and then your clothes so that it numbs the pain. There is also ELMA cream if you want to numb the area for waxing (safe to use in pregnancy)

Why anyone would do anything with their body hair at any time is beyond me

I had a good trim after DS was born but really wasn't fussed while pregnant! I couldn't see it so didn't care lol.

Did anyone else get a hairy tummy?? Mine is still bad from it!

I had a go with a razor two days ago and DH can't stop laughing at the mess I've made. Extremely glad neither of us can see the back area because I had to have a go there as well due to unaccountably starting to grow some kind of tail Blush thanks hormones!

Perhaps it is natures way of telling you it is not a good idea --
