I like to keep things neat and tidy down on Tassy. About once a week I usually like to do the fire breaks and tame the forrest in general but the last few weeks I have to admit, I can't see what I am doing!
This would be DH's face if I asked for help ha ha...
Last week I nearly cut off my finger nail.. not even sure how that happened
Do you bother once you cant see, get waxed or just let it run wild?
With DS I just let it go - but I don't reckon I will this time. It's all a bit difficult to keep the forest clean after the birth.
I think I'm going to have to bite the bullet and ask DH to assist - his face will be exactly the same.
Missbec gets it waxed (we were discussing in another thread) - as I'm sure other BB members do. Brave, very brave. I just wish I had the guts to - it would make life so much easier in the long run.
I just reckon waxing would totally cane - but be really good. Oh, I'm torn!!
Yeah I let it go first time too but knew I had to have a ceaser so day before, I was standing in front of the mirror doing it and that was really awkward.
I did try geting it waxed once when I was pg and you're right it blardy caned after shaving for so long and because everything is more sensitive. Especially along the top YEOW! I always got ingrowns from waxing too for some reason, never a prob with shaving. Shaving only itches if you leave it longer than a week in between. For me anyway..
I used to wax myself. I would lock myself in the bathroom on a Friday night, drink a couple of bourbans (numbs everything a little and helps with the ripping it off courage) but in all honesty, didnt matter how much I loofahed and looked after it, I ALWAYS got ingrowns. I never get them shaving and I never get itchy from shaving either. It would be nice if it didnt grow back so quick.. but hey DH doesnt inspect that closely these days anyway.
Interesting thread - just starting to contemplate the idea of waxing down there - the sides and underneath seem to be causing a few issues with my underwear and attempts to wipe after toileting. Not really worried about the top section much more just the sides and underneath.
Not quite sure if I'm game to go and get it done though - wouldn't quite know what exactly I'm asking for - does a bikini wax just do the sides or does it do underneath as well? I don't want the whole lot off - I know that much (If I ever used to tidy up down there I would shave but that happens very rarely as I would get the itchy rash thingy happening too - rather just go wild usually)
Not even game to ask DH to attempt to help tidy there - I would be too embarrassed to ask him, let alone him actually considering the idea and attempting it.
To me its hair and I have never bothered with it. My midwife looks at more vagina's then I care to think about so when it comes to birthing my attitude is 'who cares?'. Birthing is natural, hair is too .
Hey guys
I have so been wondering about this too! I can't see my tassie either - DH would do it no probs but I think I would just laugh the whole time! I think waxing would probably be better - but I am so scared of it! I only just started doing my legs!!! My sis swears by waxing the forest but I think it will absolutely kill! Post birth I can see how this is a better option. Oh what to do? A girls dilehmma! Thanks for the laughs girls what a great thread!

Liz I have a friend that uses clippers that kinda shorten everything up to keep it tidy and under control. I usually use scissors to shorten the landing strip but I cant see it now to do it properly and too scared I will hurt myself
Macca I'm not doing it for the midwives LOL its just for me as I prefer it neat. My friend is a theatre nurse and she said that if peole come in for an op where they are knocked out and have made a special effort down there, they have a bit of a laugh about it!
lol this is a funny one. Well I too have always been one to tame the beast. I have to shave still. I can't really see it either I just hope that it doens't look to funny.
