Stupid question but is waxing safe?

Jenniferk08

I feel stupid asking but I can't really find anything online.
Is it ok to get bikini waxes while TTC? It's the only thing I'm doing differently from when I had my lo. I figured maybe the waxing was affecting blood flow or I don't know.
Just trying to figure out why. I told h I'm not getting waxed until KU or until we throw in the towel.

I don't really know, but it seems unlikely that it would have any effect. 

That said, i have found that if there is anything i am are worrying about, its best to just not do that habit, eat that item etc -- assuming of course there are no negative health  benefits or other affects.

I wouldn't think it would matter, but I'm with @dolphin012 if you're worried, I'd give it up.

I'm wracking my brain too to try to find a reason why things aren't working for us like they did last time. But the main thing I can come up with is that my stress is higher and my sleep is lower and I can't find too much to do about those things. I keep telling myself that it took my mom 2 years to get pregnant with my brother after she had no trouble getting pregnant with me. I think sometimes it just takes time and there may not be a reason. I like to console myself by saying that we just have to keep waiting until it's the right kiddo that will be conceived--just exactly the one God has picked out for our family. It doesn't always help (like today) but sometimes it does.

I totally agree about the wracking your brain to figure out why each time didn't work. I spend so much time during the TWW worrying about every little thing, like if it's okay to eat certain things, drink certain teas, etc. I do agree that if it's not absolutely necessary and you're worried about it, it's probably better to just cut it out of your life for now.

I agree with all others, I don't THINK it would be an issue, but personally, I never want to do anything that I could look back at and regret if I get a BFN.  That's just me...  And I think it's normal to wrack your brain about why it's not happening.  We all do it...

Thanks everyone. I'm going to hold off for now. I went years without it so it's no big deal to stop now.
