Body hair???

koolgrl512 · October 2011

I knew your hair gets thicker during pregnancy, but no one mentioned body hair. I have to shave my legs/underarms EVERY DAY, and my happy trail has become increasingly overgrown. And my lower back. And my arms. DH says I'm covered in fur He thinks it's cute, me not so much.

I'm seriously thinking about buying a body waxing kit!

I already shaved every day, just because I hate the feeling of stubble and try to avoid it, but now I can shave in the morning and still feel stubble by the end of the day. It's ridiculous.

This is TMI, but I have sprouted hairs on my chin!!! So bad!

I've never been a shave every day kind of person. Quite frankly, I haven't needed to! I guess that's changing

I honestly don't know how my husband finds me attractive between the extra fuzz and my pizza face! I feel like a disgusting lump of blah.

I know exactly what you mean I'd rather just go get waxed but I've been so lazy lately so now I'm walking around looking like a bear lol

Haha, yes! The laziness/exhaustion has definitely been the major inhibitor in this endeavor.

I've always been a shave every day girl (it sucks, but it's needed). I can't stand the feel of prickle! I have realized my hair seems to grow faster, but I haven't had to change my routines at all.

Shaving everyday gives me razor burn. Luckily it's long sleeve weather and I don't have to worry about it as much. It is driving me nuts, though.

I am so glad you said this. I took a bath yesterday and looked down at my tummy and my happy trail for real was slightly out of control. I shaved it immediately.

I hate body hair with passion, so I've been waxing everything under the sun for the last decade if not longer. I don't know what I'd do without my waxer. I've definitely kept up with it since getting pg and haven't noticed having to go more often. What I do notice is that my skin has become wicked sensitive. It sucks but I don't even care - this is the last shred of dignity and I am hanging on to it!

OMG my body hair is growing SOOOOO fast. It's really ridiculous. lol.

It's the hormones and the folic acid in the prenatals that's doing it to us all. The vitamins they sell for hair and skin are basically the same as prenatal s since the same things that help our babies grow also help hair and skin grow. Just wait until you can't see your legs and worse your girl parts Confused

One tip for anyone who this is their first time around. If you get hair on your tummy (trail) that you did not have before, it's gross, but leave it alone. I had someone on here tell me to do that otherwise once pregnancy is over it sticks around. I left it and after I had DD it disappeared.

I'm lasered everywhere thank God but... the peach fuzz on my face is OUT OF CONTROL!!! Blech.

For some reason the hair on my legs has QUIT growing. So strange.

Ugh I feel your pain. My legs are going nuts. I HATE body hair so I pretty much have shaved everything below the belly button since I started to grow it during puberty. Now that just seems like so much work! I also have quite a mustache that I have to wax like every other week and today I noticed some new peach fuzz on my chin. What the heck?!
