Wax before baby arrives

Has anyone got a wax a couple of weeks before baby is due?
Does it really hurt?
I couldn't reach towards the end of my pregnancy last time ShockConfused so I'm wondering if it's worth it!

I've always had my wax done professionally even before pregnancy and had one done 2 weeks before due date (which ended up being only 1 week to birth!)

I wouldn't have said it was any more painful than usual

I got a wax at 38 weeks, and it was painful as my skin was super sensitive at that stage.

However for me, my hair growth slowed right down and I was hair free for ages after. Which I prefer.

If you do it take paracetamol. My skin looked older really tender afterwards, was fine within twenty four hours tho. I was same everywhere so when I threaded my upper lip my face went red and sore for a while too.
