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!!

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!

When I woke up at 4 am and I just KNEW I was in labor I totally got in the shower and shaved! Haha.

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?

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!!
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...

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.

@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!
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

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!

@Rubies: Man, sign me up for THAT pregnancy side effect.
I don't shave at all, I wax, so that lasts a while and I felt good to go.

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

@skibobrown: Omg I did the same thing with scissors I only use for this purpose this past weekend. I felt gross and unruly and um....that was dangerous!! I got trimmed up, though.
