It was such a luxury! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-in-pregnancy-did-you-stop-doing-your-own-toenails#post-547545 Sun, 03 Feb 2013 19:54:53 +0000 tororojo 547545@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'm 36 weeks and just did my toes a couple of days ago. It's not the comfiest thing ever, but I'm not sure that DH would do a good job so I manage. I do have him take off the old polish, though. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-in-pregnancy-did-you-stop-doing-your-own-toenails#post-547317 Sun, 03 Feb 2013 15:35:12 +0000 LazyLightning 547317@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Mrs. Blue: That's how I feel too. I may be in socks all the time but at least one part of me looks nice. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-in-pregnancy-did-you-stop-doing-your-own-toenails#post-547200 Sun, 03 Feb 2013 13:40:48 +0000 matador84 547200@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Always get pedis! 1x a month </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-in-pregnancy-did-you-stop-doing-your-own-toenails#post-547195 Sun, 03 Feb 2013 13:37:04 +0000 shopaholic 547195@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I last did them myself at 33 weeks (2 weeks ago), but both the last 2 times I said would be my last. I seriously think it's time to pamper myself with getting a spa pedi! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-in-pregnancy-did-you-stop-doing-your-own-toenails#post-546980 Sun, 03 Feb 2013 11:33:46 +0000 lovehoneybee 546980@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I think I managed until 33 weeks, but I was uncomfortable and sort of pretzeling myself. I got a great pedicure with my MIL right before I gave birth. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-in-pregnancy-did-you-stop-doing-your-own-toenails#post-546977 Sun, 03 Feb 2013 11:30:19 +0000 Mrs. Blue 546977@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I could still paint them, with moderate discomfort until about 25 weeks. Now, I don't have a chance. I've pretty much let them go the last few weeks, but I am planning on getting a pedicure sometime in the next couple of weeks. Even though they will be covered since it's still cold, I feel like having my toes look nice will make me feel better about looking like a huge glub-a-glub everywhere else. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-in-pregnancy-did-you-stop-doing-your-own-toenails#post-546870 Sun, 03 Feb 2013 10:44:53 +0000 mrsmenow 546870@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I did mine all the way through:) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-in-pregnancy-did-you-stop-doing-your-own-toenails#post-546856 Sun, 03 Feb 2013 10:38:12 +0000 travelgirl1 546856@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>At first I felt too sick to bend over to do them, and then I got too big to reach... I remember doing a token paint of them when I had to have a cervical swab done at the doctors but I did it blind as I couldn't see past my bump and I pretty much totally missed the nail and painted the skin around it, ha ha. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-in-pregnancy-did-you-stop-doing-your-own-toenails#post-546816 Sun, 03 Feb 2013 10:17:35 +0000 autumnlove 546816@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I did them once a few months ago around 15 weeks. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-in-pregnancy-did-you-stop-doing-your-own-toenails#post-546814 Sun, 03 Feb 2013 10:16:49 +0000 sarac 546814@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I did mine until close to the end, then brad did them. He was not especially accurate. But it was sweet. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-in-pregnancy-did-you-stop-doing-your-own-toenails#post-546801 Sun, 03 Feb 2013 10:11:54 +0000 betsyboop 546801@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I started getting them at around 38 weeks. Up until then, I was quite the contortionist! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-in-pregnancy-did-you-stop-doing-your-own-toenails#post-546787 Sun, 03 Feb 2013 10:04:49 +0000 Bao 546787@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@LazyLightning: he actually did a better job than I did! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-in-pregnancy-did-you-stop-doing-your-own-toenails#post-546762 Sun, 03 Feb 2013 09:52:29 +0000 LazyLightning 546762@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@mediagirl: @Bao: Hah, that's awesome that your husbands do it! I could probably ask mine to but it would perhaps not be very accurate. ;) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-in-pregnancy-did-you-stop-doing-your-own-toenails#post-546748 Sun, 03 Feb 2013 09:45:18 +0000 Bao 546748@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I think around 25/27 weeks DH started doing them for me. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-in-pregnancy-did-you-stop-doing-your-own-toenails#post-546746 Sun, 03 Feb 2013 09:44:22 +0000 mediagirl 546746@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My husband did them for me at 35 weeks when I was feeling like a heifer and couldn't reach anymore. :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-in-pregnancy-did-you-stop-doing-your-own-toenails#post-546744 Sun, 03 Feb 2013 09:43:10 +0000 Baby Boy Mom 546744@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My first pregnancy I did them till about third tri. This time I stopped early second because I figured it was winter anyway. I was just thinking I need to go in for a pedi though sometime soon before d-day! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-in-pregnancy-did-you-stop-doing-your-own-toenails#post-546721 Sun, 03 Feb 2013 09:23:58 +0000 Adira 546721@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I've been too lazy to do my toes myself for a while now, so I've been getting pedis since before I was pregnant, and I'm still going. Just got one done on Friday! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-in-pregnancy-did-you-stop-doing-your-own-toenails#post-546714 Sun, 03 Feb 2013 09:18:01 +0000 Dandelion 546714@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'm hitting 34 weeks tomorrow and just the other day I declared it the last time I'm shaving and dealing with my toenails until after the baby is here. I don't know if I'll get a pedicure, but at this point I don't even care, lol </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-in-pregnancy-did-you-stop-doing-your-own-toenails#post-546712 Sun, 03 Feb 2013 09:16:19 +0000 LazyLightning 546712@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Just a silly question - I tend to paint my toenails every 2 weeks or so, I just always have. At 23 weeks it's starting to be pretty awkward! Thinking I need to start going in for pedicures instead!! (Oh, darn!)</p> <p>How long did y'all make it on your own before handing over this task to someone else? ;) </p>
