Would/Should you shave before giving birth?

Question

Answer

Yea...I'm not gonna attempt it and I'm sure my dr has seen it all before....I don't need to add more stress to the process

Answer

Lol. I keep reading about people saying they have their husbands do it for them. I wish I could ask my husband with a straight face. I just mentioned it to him and he gave me the most terrified look. Hahaha! He would never. I'll just have to keep hacking away on my own and hope for the best 😉

Answer

So I physically cannot see down there well enough to shave by myself. I will be a single mom so I can't exactly ask my SO to help me as there isn't one. This may seem odd but my best friend for almost 10 years actually helps me. She recently had her baby girl in January so she knows the struggle and we are practically sisters so it's not weird in my case, I'm sorry if you do find it weird haha. I personally will keep it clean down there, especially right before I deliver bc I have heard keeping it shaved or waxed made it easier to do SIT baths after birth and you will be bleeding for weeks afterwards and to me hair would just add to mess.

Answer

I personally shave because birth is messy and bloody and gross. I don't care about the people looking at me, more for myself and comfort and cleanliness afterwards. My last 2 babies I had my husband help me and am guessing it will be the same this time.

Answer

I said yes.. If you can. If not the hospital will probably do it for you so don't worry. I'm personally planning on staying waxed up until delivery!

Answer

I'm just going to trim with an electric razor. I'm scared of cutting myself with an actual razor and I really really don't want my husband doing it for me.

Answer

I will be and if I am unable to my partner will be doing it for lol and he signed up to that one before I got preg

Answer

These days, I shave only right before an appointment and I plan on keeping up with it as it gets closer to my due date. I just hate having a hairy vagina. Haha!

Answer

I didn't shave my first two pregnancies didn't have nobody to help I personally didn't think it was a big deal they know we can't see down there or barely reach lol but my hubby said he will help me this time around tho 😊

Answer

It's whatever you feel comfortable with, I didn't.
