I am not a waxer myself as I am MEGGA hairy and have been told by a beautician not to bother! I just opt for the trim....

I DID however, wax prior to having DS nearly 2 years ago (and that was the last time ) and was told not to do it too close to giving birth because of infection. I did it a couple of weeks before my due date and he ended up being a week overdue too (so I'm pretty sure it was back to messy down there, although I couldn't see it). I guess once the hairs are ripped out of their little follicles, they are left OPEN and all the goobies that go on down there at the time of giving birth could get in maybe!?
