Waxing during pregnancy
Just wondering if anyone's been waxed whilst pregnant?? Does it really hurt more than usual? I'm 19 weeks and due for a full leg/bikini/underarm wax next Tuesday and I'm a bit anxious now! Have also got a Caesarean scar above my bikini which will also be affected I guess? Can anyone reassure me please?? I will ring the salon before I go to make them aware I'm pregnant, hopefully they'll be gentle!

Indeed, the things we do to stay beautiful, I'm just trying to start waxing now while I can still see the results so that when I can't even reach my legs, I'll still be preened and hair-free - esp in the Summer months when I'll be huuuge!!
I'm a beauty therapist and am told that waxing is more painful in pregnancy, but still preferable to being hairy, so can't be that bad!
Just make sure that if you have any varicose veins your therapist applies vaseline to them as you must NOT wax these areas. That's really the only problem with waxing during pregnancy.
I can't do my own waxing anymore cos I just can't bend/see enough! Needless to say, I'm very hairy and I don't even want to think about those areas that really should stay trimmed!!! DH has been banned from looking!xx
