They see so many..shaved, unshaved, half shaved...I just had mine super short for the first. So whatever your preference is than go with that. They won't say anything anyways.

It honestly won't matter to your doctor besides chances are by the time you hit your 3rd trimester you won't be able to shave anymore (at least not without struggling with it because your belly will be in the way)

I didn't but I dont shave I keep it super short (think shaving makes me look like a prepubescent child and hubby doesnt like it  being shaved for the same reason lol). It was a vaginal ultrasound at seven weeks and doc didnt say anything

Tbh I don't think it would matter either way... when I had my first appointment they only pulled my trousers down to the bottom of my belly and lifted my top up.
