2nd Trimester

Speaking of Bending Down . . .

Can someone PLEASE tell me how I'm supposed to shave my legs in the tub once my tummy starts getting bigger?  I'm barely showing now and am already having difficulties.  I'd like to maintain some sense of sex appeal for my DH and I'm thinking that going the next 5 months without shaving my legs is not the way to do it.

  • As it is now, I have to shave ?blindly.?

    And I realized yesterday that I'm pretty much incapable of tying my own shoes.?

  • buy a cheap plastic chair? mine is also a bath so i just hike my leg on the side. 
  • I just put my leg up on the side of our tub.  Luckily, we have a safety bar installed in the tub from when my grandmother lived there.  Otherwise, I would probably fall on my @ss, since I'm a bit clumsy these days.
  • No suggestions, but I am can still somehow manage to shave my legs, although I don't do it as often! I don't have many shorts that I can still fit into so I mostly just shave from the knee down, is that bad? I can't see the rest of my legs enough to pay that much attention to them anyways, haha! I do find I am cutting myself more lately though because it's harder to see what I'm doing Tongue Tied

  • HAHA DH mentioned something about shaving the other day. I informed him that it wouldn't be long then I wouldn't be able to see down there - much less shave my legs or other parts. So far I've been trying to shave but find it very uncomfortable in the tub and the the seems to be too small. Possibly I should hike upstairs and use the tub/shower in the guest bath.

    How about cleaning the tub? I've been meaning to clean it (it's not terrible - but still!) I just can't lean over to get to the bottom of the garden tub. Maybe that will move to DH duty until after the baby ;)

  • I had DH to shave my legs in the shower. 
  • Last time when I got big I just started putting my leg on the side of the tub. I shaved in the shower yesterday but from now on I'm in the tub, it was crazy uncomfortable! I'm officially at that point.

  • I sat in the tub this morning during my shower to shave my legs...as for shaving other areas, I broke down and bought an electric razor with a guard, locked the door, and did the best I could. I caught a look at myself in the mirror and about died, not sure how I even ended up in the position I was in. Haha.

  • i use Nair, that way i only have to bend over to apply it quick and then 3-5 mins later I'm done.  OB said it was safe too!

  • I convinced DH that if he wanted it done then he could do it. What do you know it works :) He does a great job and it makes it a fun task
  • When we first moved into our house last year, I was supremely annoyed by the built-in seat in our shower...now I LOVE it! It's the perfect shower accessory for a pregnant woman. ;) I couldn't imagine trying to do a balancing act just to shave!
