Waxing

[minilemonade]

I get waxed every few weeks (full leg and Hollywood). My bump is starting to show now so am I still able to go, do I need to bring a pillow or can I just lie on my side? Any experience appreciated 😂

I had a bikini wax at about 6 months pregnant and it was uncomfortable to lie down with the bump. They offered me a pillow to put under my back and worked around what was comfortable for me. You could take your own just incase, or even call ahead to check.

Just be aware that some places are anxious about waxing ladies in their 3rd trimester, especially in more intimate places, as it has been known to start contractions in some women. My advice would be to talk to your waxing salon and ask what their stance is on things such as that.

I am 34 weeks and still getting legs waxed but stopped bikini line as that area had become very very sensitive (and I’ve been getting waxing done for many years, it really doesn’t bother me usually!).

I lie on my back then on my side and the beauty therapist can manage the backs of my legs that way. She is very quick so I’m not lying down very long.

I still get an extended bikini wax in the third trimester. The beds you lie on can be propped up so you don’t lie flat, but generally lying on your back for short periods is fine until your nearing the end, if you feel dizzy or light headed then you need to move.
