Shaving down there before labor and delivery?

[Kel127]

I kept mine trim through out my last preganancy. I had my husband help shave me before I was induced to make sure I got eveything.

i did but i always make sure i'm neat and tidy so it wasn't for the hospital staff convience but my own comfort. i ended up with emergency c section so i would have been shaved if i hadn't already done it myself lol

 

[mummy2be...]

i got my DH to shave me before i went in to be induced for my own dignity (trying to spare a little of it) and for the sake of the midwives.

I get everything down there waxed off anyway, I feel cleaner and more hygienic that way and it'll be good when I give birth (and afterwards) that there's no hairy bits in the way! I hate the hair! My next waxing is due at 39 weeks, just in time before bubsy comes along =D
I'd never shave again, tried it once and the itching was unbearable! Waxing is a bit painful but nothing like the pain that we're all gonna have to go through!

I'm trying to remember where I read it--

Is it a nice thing to do or a courtesy to hospital staff to shave yous lady bits before you have the baby?

Maybe I read it was for a different procedure-I'm don't remember. Does hospital staff care if you're shaved up or not?

Bless, but why the heck would you do it for the staff?!?!?!?!?!?!?!

Its meant to be hairy down there no one will be offended by a bit of hair and it certainly isn't dirty or unhygienic.

If you want to try nad shave before hand go ahead but you dont have to do it for anyone.

The practice of routinely shaving ladies for delivery went out years ago as it was a waste of time and increased likelihood of infection of from cuts and nics form people not paying attention when shaving you plus it was a little degrading!

I trimmed up a bit and that wasnt shaved for my EMCS.

OMFG I need the number of your beautician...I've had a few waxes and fuck me they hurt worse that labour!

CTX were easy compared to a wax.

I was thinking of just going blind and guessing .. I've given her a trim with OH shaver which seems to be okay. I hate anything of the sort for hair on my lady! So it's driving me crazy beucase I can't see it but OH can. Joking about it being a 70's Style Muff! .

Main for me is the hairs around my bum!

Im gonna be whippin it all off. I dont trust my beloved husband to do any of it because knowing my luck he would have shaved it into some sort of shape or picture an i wouldnt be able to tell because i cant see it lol i do all mine in the bath now

I went blind, MW asked who done it I said me, apparently I done a good job Hahahahaha

 

[cherryglitter]

i didnt shave when i had jake.
if a nurse would've done it for me, i would've jumped at the chance
i hated not being able to do it.

Hubby offered to do it when i can't reach... I kinda laughed at him, and said i'd manage... ahah, I dont know i like to shave, and i do it every second day. Wether its gonna take me an hour or ten minutes its going to be done.
