hubby has tidied me up but as far as shaving it all off is concerned, I did it once and it itched like hell when it was growing back so this time, I'm gonna get it waxed!

How are those of you that have partners (like mine) who will not help you managing it!?! I tried to use a lady-shaver thing with a setting for that area and it did not work so used a razor a little while back and it took AGES and I really struggled to reach. Now I am getting bigger and bigger my bump is in the way (and I am only at just over 28 weeks) and I just can not reach. I am so jealous that some peoples husbands will help them out!

Anything long enough to be suitable as a dental floss substitute is, for me, too much!

However, I agree with Embovstar that shaving is a no-no. The sensation of crabs... without the crabs.

I decided to wax mine the other day. Total mission. Took forever and then had a nightmare with the tweezers plucking the ones who got away first time. My poor bump was pushed all over whilst I was trying to get see! Good plan with the hair trimmer, I use the sideburns bit on my OH's electric shaver!!

Makes me glad I have a small bump. No trouble using my trimmer and then finishing shaping with my razor.

It's all coming off with the razor now as I can't really see well enough how to trim it effectively into a nice shape. It's getting trickier by the week, but if I keep doing it and not let it overgrow it tends to get done quite quickly and esaily as I don't have to 'fight my way through the thicket'

and there's no way I'm letting it overgrow: I've seen pics of women in labour all overgrown and I'm sorry but it's gross. I'd be too embarrassed
