Shaving your......

Hello ladies... Ftm here. With our tummies getting bigger and less visual coverage to your downstairs, how do you keep groomed? This is pretty personal but I am dying over here. Tips on shaving legs would help, too! :-\"

  • For legs I've been leaning sideways so my belly lays on the side of my leg, if that makes sense. For my vag I've told DH he can do it himself if he wants it done, otherwise I'm not risking a cut doing it blind. I had laser hair removal a few years ago so it's not AS bad but it's definitely grown back since pregnancy. They don't tell you that when you're paying to get LHR... :-q
  • I use a mirror. A small vanity mirror on a stand. I stand it on the side of my tub and stand in front of it kind of squatting kind of spread eagle. It isn't pretty. I don't keep up with it, it gets done only when I can't stand the bush any more. My legs, well only the bottom half get done. I can barely bend over and reach anymore so don't know what I'm going to so about that.

  • I've tried the mirror thing and having Dh do it, but he won't and now I am going insane with the jungle going on down there.

  • I cut myself last week and told husband he has to do it now.
  • Ugh you just reminded me that I have to shave my legs this weekend. Going to a wedding and the only decent dress I have is short! Blah

    As to my vaj, I've tried to keep up the best I could but it's really not working anymore. I know they'll have to shave most of it for my RSC, but in hoping I can have H help me out.
  • For legs,I sit on the side of the tub.
  • Legs arent an issue, just uncomfortable leaning. I use the sides to prop my leg up. As for downstairs.. I havent been able to see for quite a while now so I just use my hand to feel the path of the razor. I know I miss spots and its not a great job but its better than a jungle and I REFUSE to ask DH to do it...and I think he would also refuse to do it lol
  • I'm one of the lucky beeotches that don't need to shave her legs. As for "down there" I just blindly reach, and trim. Haven't seen blood yet, but if I do, that will be the end of it.

  • Legs I am able to do without too much trouble (although I have noticed I cut myself significantly more often...) by propping my foot on the side or wall of the tub.

    I started getting everything waxed. I only went once so far. My next appoitment, which is four weeks after the first, is in Friday. Totally worth it, especially given how slowly it comes back in.

  • I've been waxing the downstairs too keep that presentable; legs have become a once a week deal, but so far I can still bend enough to make it work
  • Brazilian. Definitely need to get that done again. Or I may just keep it trimmed. I can still shave my legs.

  • I am at the end of the group, so I am still relatively small. I found last night if I lean forward and try to push the baby up to my boobs, I can still see my lady bits!

  • I feel like a cow and H isn't getting any...I'm going natural this time around and will tame the beast at a later date, you know when I have a screaming newborn plus a rambunctious toddler and showers last all of 5 minutes.

  • I love these women who have husbands thst will shave for them. I think my DH is a great guy obviously but I think if I asked him to shave anything on me he would be like WTH? Or he'd be scared shitless about cutting me. IDK...I guess I should ask. Maybe he'd shock me & say yes! I use a dry razor to shave my legs nowadays, sitting sideways to help reach. I shaved the down under area by feel the other day with a real razor because it was getting out of control although it was a half assed attempt.
  • Legs I can manage by using the edge of the tub.

    I use a mirror and an electric razor for my vaj. Lol. I still manage to cut myself though. I may give up the fight soon.
  • waxing, which i was doing pre-pregnancy. I've been seeing the same lady for years now, since I've expanded I have her update me on how things are looking down there in general.

  • I have a stand up shower, not a tub, so I bought a little stool for in the shower, makes the legs a LOT easier to have something to prop my foot up on.

    F the rest of it, I gave up months ago.  Might go for a bikini wax in Nov.  I haven't had a Brazilian in ages, and honestly I just don't want to bother keeping up with it. 
    D14 November, because I am finally not on mobile, how I feel in 3rd tri:

  • I have a serious question for those with Brazilian experience: Do they spread your lady lips and get to the nitty gritty?
  • I got a cute little personal trimmer thing and Ive been using it to trim those hedges down under. The shave is obviously not as close this way, but its good enough that I still feel clean and sexy for SO. Also, now that I really have zero visibility, I have been taking my full length mirror into the bathroom so I can see what Im doing. Its good times! Lol
  • I use one of theses to tame the wild beast. No mirror. Just feel around.

    DH has offered to do it completely but um.....not too sure if I trust him with a sharp object down there.

  • My bf offered to do it for me and he does a great job. I guess he figures that hes the reason i cant see it anymore, hes kinda obligated, lol
  • I've been using a mirror but literally it happens like once a month cause I can't see anything. But I may just stop because I have been getting horrific razor burn! I NEVER used to get razor burn and now I get it down there AND under my arms. Does anyone have any remedies to heal up razor burn?
  • Yup I'm a blind shaver too. DH said he'd help when I couldn't see down there anymore but now he's chickening out. I used a mirror once and I think I'm going to have to go back to that.
    As for legs, I'll let you know when I actually try shaving them again. Oddly, I feel gross if I don't shave my lady bits but have let my legs go crazy since my surgery last month (actually probably longer than that). It's been the least of my concerns... lol

  • I tried shaving a couple days ago with a mirror in the shower. Like I was clever n shit. The mirror quickly fogged up and I started bleeding from an unknown area. Done with that. Now I am only half shaved.

    Oh, shit, I'm going to the beach this weekend. Being pregnant begets more looks so I pretty much have to tackle it this week. I was getting pretty complacent with it being wild since I can't see it and all. Out of sight our of mind.

    @bayareagirl2011‌ Me neither! 11.5 years of non shaven legs. Yes!!!
  • I still do it all myself, in the shower.  I can reach my legs just fine, and with a little creative bending I can see the lady parts enough to keep the area under control.

  • I usually shave blind (ie non pg) but I just can't get a good reach or feel with this giant beach ball in the way and my lady bits are so swollen that it is a little scarier to not see what you're doing. Hence the aforementioned mirror technique. That way I can also see the shape of the landing strip and make sure that's even.

    Yep...they got it all. It was my first time so I want exactly sure what to expect, but it wasn't as awkward as I'd imagined. They see lady parts all day long, so I imagine mine are nothing special. She chatted, told me about her kids, etc., which made it less she is looking at my vajayjay and more comfortable-ish.

  • I think last time a similar thread was posted, someone said I did the right side but said fuck the left side. So I have a visual of Uncle Si's crooked beard stuffed in some under pants.
