Waxing while pregnant?

Question

I'm flying out on vacation for a week in a few days and being 30 weeks pregnant, am having serious trouble trying to shave my legs! I've never had a waxing done before, but I am considering trying it so I don't have to worry about it for a week. Has anyone tried it while pregnant??? I know your first time can hurt as it is, but I've also heard your skin can be more sensitive to it while pregnant.

Answer

I've gotten many Brazilian waxes before and that doesn't even compare to the pain of leg waxing! Never done it while pregnant though

Answer

I wax everything from day one no problems here

Answer

I wax my own legs and I'm pregnant. It's totally fine. Doesn't last as long because our prenatals cause our hair to grow faster. But it's really not that bad. Go for it. I use aloe vera after to calm my redness. But it goes away pretty quick.

Answer

Both those facts are true your skin is much more sensitive ..and it hurts more your first time I suppose.. I get Brazilians I have for 4 years and I waxed up until a week before my due date last pregnancy .. and I'll be doing the same this time around .. it's worth it .. I'd about legs .. I've never waxed my legs but waxing is worth it be sure to let it grow in enough before a wax

Answer

I'm 34 weeks pregnant and got my lower legs waxed this weekend. It was very painful, but I survived. Unfortunately, my leg hair wasn't quite long enough so it didn't work great. I think you'd have to let it grow out for  1.5-2 weeks before getting it done.
