I felt gross and unruly and um....that was dangerous!! I got trimmed up, though. :-) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-you-were-close-to-your-due-date#post-95242 Fri, 16 Mar 2012 12:39:07 +0000 Mrsbells 95242@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I dont have any hair on my legs, but i can barely reach my legs even just to moisturize them, so i wouldnt bother with shaving even if I had hair </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-you-were-close-to-your-due-date#post-95233 Fri, 16 Mar 2012 12:23:08 +0000 Lozza 95233@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Rubies: Man, sign me up for THAT pregnancy side effect.</p> <p>I don't shave at all, I wax, so that lasts a while and I felt good to go. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-you-were-close-to-your-due-date#post-95221 Fri, 16 Mar 2012 12:06:08 +0000 Rubies 95221@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>When I was pregnant, I lost all the hair on my legs. Seriously, my legs were baby-butt smooth for my entire pregnancy. I don't know why! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-you-were-close-to-your-due-date#post-95217 Fri, 16 Mar 2012 12:03:29 +0000 ustechie 95217@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@skibobrown: i'm so with you! i've tried clippers, but had the same bloody experience! =O not quite sure i'm going to try again! </p> <p>i probably could shave my lady parts, which normally i do, but with the pregnancy, i've just been crazy itchy. definitely did NOT enjoy that growing back in process! i'm still able to shave my legs with minimal discomfort...but i just don't wanna! lol </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-you-were-close-to-your-due-date#post-95201 Fri, 16 Mar 2012 11:45:41 +0000 heffalump 95201@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I usually shaved every day anyway. I put a plastic outdoor chair in the shower because I had so much trouble reaching my legs, lol. My girly parts were natural though, I was too scared to shave what I couldn't see. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-you-were-close-to-your-due-date#post-95196 Fri, 16 Mar 2012 11:43:13 +0000 skibobrown 95196@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Ugh. Shaving my legs these days is a major production b/c there's no easy way to do it gracefully. Last time I figured out a way to sit down in the bottom of the shower and contort my body. I don't have a ton of leg hair, but I also know that my delivery date is approaching, so I had better make the attempt to shave again!!</p> <p>On another note, in anticipation of my internal exam today I tried to clean up my lady parts w/ clippers yesterday. Well, let's just say it's pretty dangerous to go at yourself blind with a set of clippers! There was a small amount of blood, but no irrevocable damage... </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-you-were-close-to-your-due-date#post-95139 Fri, 16 Mar 2012 10:57:11 +0000 MegWag 95139@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I didn't worry about it. My leg hair is pretty sparse and I was au naturale in lady town. I figured they'd seen it all before and weren't concerned about it, so why should I be? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-you-were-close-to-your-due-date#post-95138 Fri, 16 Mar 2012 10:57:02 +0000 His Barista 95138@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>When I woke up at 4 am and I just KNEW I was in labor I totally got in the shower and shaved! Haha. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-you-were-close-to-your-due-date#post-95128 Fri, 16 Mar 2012 10:50:12 +0000 chopsuey 95128@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Haha. I don't have hair on my legs so I didn't have to shave. :) I did make sure my lady parts were cleanly waxed/shaven though since DH was planning on taking pics of our LO coming out of me! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-you-were-close-to-your-due-date#post-95121 Fri, 16 Mar 2012 10:43:22 +0000 ustechie 95121@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Did you shave more often?? Normally, I'd probably let it go a little more, but now that I'm (hopefully!) so close to delivering, I'm shaving all the time! I don't want to be the gross patient with the crazy, hairy legs!! </p>
