weird personal questions

How many of you girls "shaved" while pregnant, like did you shave or wax before giving birth, or did you ever shave or wax before a drs apt, I'm just wondering does it even matter? Im feeling very nervous about my apt today and haven't shaved in over two months, I don't want them to think I'm like Chewbacca down there....

I shaved while pregnant I couldn't stand it. When I couldn't see or do it my husband did it. Remember your doctor doesn't care if there is hair or isnt

The only place I don't shave is my legs .. (no energy) lol.. I don't shave as often as I used to, but I do shave before my appointments (to make myself feel more comfortable - not that the doctors care) haha

I can't stand hair! I can't even handle sleeping with prickly legs, it bothers me. I didn't have to see to shave down there, I did up until I gave birth

I guess for every female it's different. If you feel comfortable with hair down there and don't mind not shaving than that's  fine. Like she said Dr. Don't care about your cookie. Lol I personally like to wax although it hurts like he'll, it's so worth the pain. You feel nice and fresh. Doesn't grow back like when it does shaving. It takes longer to grow back and decreases hair growth. I love it. Lol

Oh god I dont give a ****. I mean while it was still comfortable enough and I could see down there I did, but once my belly grew I stopped bothering. I'm 32 weeks now and can't remember the last time I shaved. I did the same with my first. It honestly doesn't matter! They don't care about what your vagina looks like haha and pregnancy is the best excuse not to shave! I find it refreshing not having to :p
