Oh god brazilian brings tears to my eyes just saying it ouch!!!

The thought of being in hospital, in all your glory with big hairy man legs frecks me out!! They'd be saying god this child has a great head of hair - oh no wait......

 

[EmyDra]

I had a right old bush I tell you. Surprised they found the baby

 

[YoungNImum]

Haha!!

Dose it hurt honestly? And I'd imagine it bleeds?

I think my legs where hairy than my valanji giving birth such a task trying to shave legs over a bump, I used to do it sitting on floor legs all shape!

 

[EmyDra]

I've never had one (a brazillian) but if it's bushy they trim it down first so I don't think it's thhhhat bad.

I remember a LOT of posts in the third tri about lady gardens and what to do with them...

 

[tiggertea]

The advice actually is to go "au naturale" with just scissor trims in the 6 weeks prior to giving birth 'to help keep risk of infection down'. I took that advice. Feck waxing at that stage... if I can't see it, it's not there.
Did keep the legs shaved well though. I had a horror about having man-legs while giving birth.

i was convinced id have to get induced, so left my legs to get hairy, planning on shaving the night before going in... wee sod came 3 days before my induction date. i wasn't embarrassed in the slightest. i did have a bit of a 70's porn star bush going on and do remember apologising for that whilst off my face on g&a. this time im doing weekly scissor trims, actually did it last night and was a challenge i tell ya! had to kind of smush bump over to the side. gonna have to get barry to hold it out the way next time

the hospital never asked me what barry's blood type was, but he's A+ anyway. I can't remember if they asked me with poppy... perhaps that's why they didn't ask this time, maybe I was in the system as needing the jabs from last time? but if that was the case, they never asked if it was the same dad iykwim? i dunno, maybe they just do it for every RH- woman as a precaution!

It does hurt the first time & it does bleed as the hair is thick if you've been shaving for years but after that its fine. Its advisable to let it grow for 6/8 wks before you get it done to ensure all the hair is fully grown out & your not stubbly after- but if its very long id trim a wee bit off - just to let her see what shes doing!!
Its only the front bit hurts mite i add, down below & in between is painless - your just not in the most lady like position at the time!!

Ive been having quite intense pains today up my back & round underneath my bump, bit like peroid crampy pains - so mite not even get my wax done just have to see how the day progresses!!

 

[Wyntir]

I've been doing weekly trims, keeping the hair growth down as much as possible.

First day of maternity leave today. I see signs of me getting bored after a few days at home.

Pram delivery arrived this morning, so its currently built and sitting in living room, leaving it there so our dog gets used it being around.

 

[YoungNImum]

I can't remember if it was a week or 2 before I had Eva but I shaved the whole lot off! OH was amazed I managed it. I just took my time and felt about so it was pretty much under control when givIng birth, I trim as often as I can be bothered but one side seems to be shorter than the other because I can't snip with my left hand lol!

 

[YoungNImum]

Wyntir enjoy your free days I loved when my mat leave with Eva the dogs where walked for hours, what pram did you get?

 

[Wyntir]

We got the mothercare trenton deluxe. Its not a flash pram by any means, but its what we were looking for and best of all its in black lol. Not into bright colours lol.

Currently considering going outside to clean downstairs windows, while its still dry.

 

[MajellaG]

Went in today to see my wee beautitian & book in for the weekend & shes got a lovely wee bump on her!!
Shes only about 12 weeks but she was so skinny before you can totally see it!!

 

[LaurGil]

They refused to wax my friend after a girls waters broke during a wax the week before ,I had a bad waxing experiance when I was younger so I just shave the lot of . I was quite impressed when I did a good job the other night without a hand mirror to see under my bump ,I told OH I'm a pro !!

OT - Anyone else have a child that sleep walks ? I caught my DS who is just over 4 walking in the landing with his book earlier but he was asleep .It has scared me so he is in with me for tonight & the top stair gate will be firmly closed at bed time !!

Xxx

 

[tiggertea]

I used to sleepwalk Laur. Dad caught me out the front door once.

 

[YoungNImum]

Is it bad I'm planning more tattoos for when this LO arrives? It reallyis true once you start u can't stop!

 

[MajellaG]

Don't think I'll be getting my wax I'll be very shocked if I don't end up in hospital over the weekend! Just sitting with the tens machine on gradually cranking it up! It's AMAZING. I'd advise anyone to give it a try!

 

[tiggertea]

Oooooh good luck Majella!

 

[EmyDra]

Woooah Majella!!! Very exciting , do you have a text buddy here to send updates to if baby arrives?

What tattoes are you planning Court? Are you going to get this LOs footprint too? I'll definately get one eventually after all the pregnancy and BFing I intend to be doing this lifetime! OH wants one too so maybe we'll go together sometime.

I do love a bright pram Wyntir . Sunshine yellow all the way!

All this talk of trims is really making me think I fancy one...

 

[Wyntir]

Good luck Majella!

Emydra both mine and hubby's favourite colour is black lol so it had to be a dark pram lol.

Saw midwife, everything great, blood pressure normal, urine clear, baby's heartbeat is 155, fundal height is measuring at 35cm. She agreed bump has clearly dropped, and she added that she couldn't feel beetroot's head as easily, so it has dropped down into my pelvis more. On my notes I noticed she has wrote Brim under position.
