I get waxed every 6 weeks or so through preg, and was done at 38 weeks with ds1. I find the regrowth much less irritating with waxing, and didn't like the thought of itchy regrowth at the same time as stitches! I do find it hurts a bit more thru pregnancy, but it only hurts for the few mins it takes them to do it. Your waxer should also be able to give you (or sell you!) a cream to stop ingrown hairs. I use one called Bikini saver which seems to work well.
