To wax or not to wax!

Well I've had my little girl now (so in love!) and I thought I would post again to say I am SO pleased I trimmed up before the birth of Izzy.

I found during labour it was actually 'nice' to be trim down there as I had so much fluid and blood loss that it just felt a little 'better' (cleaner, if that's possible!) in general but more than anything, it was so much nicer to cope with all the blood loss after her birth! No one can prepare you for the blood loss following the birth of your baby and having less pubes made all the difference for me. It was bloody enough down there without a mass of hair being covered in blood too. The trim down before our daughters birth was a fabulous move for me but as we all know, it's a very personal choice however keep the blood loss in mind.

Congratulations!!
I agree - I found it was easier to deal with having no hair to deal with because I didn't feel as sticky and wet, therefore, didn't have that desperation for a shower when I got caught up in the feeding and settling.
Have fun with your new one

That is exactly how I felt! Personal preference but I believe it made a difference to how comfortable I felt each day.

Having a wonderful time being a mum although Izzy is a bit of a night owl. Sleep deprivation is hell but so worth it
