I wouldn't say shaving "regularly" but I just gave it a go over the weekend. Probably the last time I'll be able to do it myself. My husband is very excited to give it a try for me, he thinks it's sexy to do it for me. I won't complain (unless he nicks me).
I wouldn't say "regularly", but i'm still shaving when i feel like it. DH isn't interested in sexy time at the moment. He thinks the baby is watching. L-)

Not shaving regularly, only for special occasions (pap smears and H's bday). It'll become more regular once I start having internals, and right before delivery.
Not shaving "regularly" for sure, but I shave sometimes. I can't see it though, so I'll usually do it, look in a mirror, and then fix whatever I didn't get.
All those years of being too lazy to put contacts in just to shave my lady bits is starting to pay off!
PSA: PP bleeding is gross. Clean shaven makes all that a million times less gross. YWIA
I was kind of thinking this. I think I might get waxed (just basic bikini) around my due date. Not too close to 40 weeks, but enough to give me a 3-4 weeks of "no maintenance needed" time.

I got a wax the day before my induction. I think it's one of the reasons I want to be induced again. Perfect planning.
@Iv2011 the whole taco! Do it right the first time
On my list once baby is out. I wanted to start this last fall, but, ya know, I got pregnant and apparently that makes people hesitant to shoot lasers at your crotch. Go big or go home.
ETA: I'm one of the waxers. Everything front and back, because I guess I'm a masochist.
I really want to do laser. I had my my appointment and everything ready to go in January 2012 but then I got KU and was to scared to do it while BFing and now I am KU again. So, sometime in the future when I don't have a baby in my UTE or on my boob I will be lasering.
I said nothing, because I don't have the $$ for waxing right now. I have been shaving occasionally but I think the ability to bend has gone away so...that's over!

I suggest the full taco. It's like your worst period times 10 and you can't do a tampon. I was so glad I had it all smooth down there because I could just wipe it off. Otherwise I probably would have wanted a bath every time I peed
Congrats to my GP Sister from another mister Bruinsbabe!!
If by "shaving" you mean "standing in the shower for 20 minutes with one leg up, waving a razor around hoping for the best, getting out of the shower realizing I missed a few clumps of hair and feeling like I've run a half marathon," then yes. Yes I am shaving.
I find the whole shaving thing to be much easier if I'm taking a bath instead of a shower. So, if I bathe regularly, I'll shave. But by shower, it's whenever I feel up to contorting myself. I wish I had it in the budget to laser it off. That sounds awesome!
I'm shaving regularly but I think that's just about done. Doing it blind now which makes me X_X . So I think I'll wait a month and get a wax. Definitely want to be completely hair free for delivery. I know it's weird but for some reason I'll feel much better without hair down there for that whole process. Last time I shaved right before my induction but I'm sure I missed some spots.
SS - Only before an appointment, just in case. I try to at least trim in between (I have an electric trimmer) but I've been pretty lazy with that. Last time I shaved, I could still manage it with a mirror and some gymnastics. Next time might require a mirror. I don't really trust DH to do it and he'd be too afraid.
I voted nothing which is pretty much what I do, but I do give it a little trim around the edges with my razor here and there. Wish I could see down there to do more. No waxing for me. Too afraid to try it. I plan to make DH shave it all off before going into labor.
I've been trimming but that's about it. I was never into shaving, it was always super irritating to me. I used to go fairly regularly to get waxed, and I think I will again before delivery.
I must be the only one who doesn't shave/wax normally. I'll trim to keep it from becoming a jungle, but MH actually prefers the natural look and it is way easier for me!
I must be in the minority, but I make DH do it now. It was super scary the first time, but now its not so bad. I'd rather him do it then me slip in the shower.
DH is going to start helping me out as I just can't anymore and I've nicked myself pretty good last time. I totally trust him to do it but he's also a nurse so I know he's not weirded out by it and has a pretty steady hand lol
Re: Ladyscaping
I did mention to DH if he would start doing it.. he said he wouldn't mind(but to confess im kinda scared about him cutting me! haha)

And I love my husband and all, but I'd never let him landscape my lady parts and to be honest, I don't think he'd want to anyway!
