Shaving before Dr's visit?

Question

I'm currently 18+5 weeks pregnant with my first little one. I've been referred to a high risk doctor for my high blood pressure and I was just wondering if you guys shave down there before every appointment? I usually shave before my regular midwife appointments but I'm gonna be seeing this doctor as well now so I was just wondering what everyone else does!

Answer

Theres no reason? They don't do vaginal checks until like 35 weeks

Answer

Never. They’ve seen it all.

Answer

other than my first appointment I've never had any appointment involve my vagina until like 36 weeks.... I'm on my 4th pregnancy

Answer

My twin sister works as an RT in delivery rooms and she laughed her ass off when I told her I shaved before my first few appointments! Apparently they really don’t care or notice :) 
Note: I still trim some things up a little before appointments any way so follow your heart! Haha

Answer

I've had 1 vaginal exam at 34 weeks because I lost part of my mucus plug and they wanted to check me out right away so I had no time to clean up down there. So no I don't shave for my appointments because they have no reason to be down there and now that I'm 38 weeks even thinking about shaving tires me out.

Answer

I did at first now I could care less!

Answer

I do. They do an internal exam at every appointment for me starting at 18 weeks

Answer

Lol no. I make sure to take a shower! That’s it

Answer

I don’t shave normally so no lol i do trim but don’t make it a priority before my apts..everyone is different though and do what you feel is more comfortable...it might get harder to do the closer you get lol
