I really had no choice but to go professional after about 30 wks....I dunno about you girls but I found it hard to shave my legs or even see my feet for that matter....actually getting right under the bump to trim up the area was pretty much impossible! My DH offered to shave me brazilian at 38 wks but I said....Hmmmm no thanks!!!

As far as I can think, logically, what Mellon23 said is prob the best reason....but then again if you do nick yourself it's healed like the next day! I think that Hospital went a bit overboard with that request perhaps to cover their own ars*s.
