Hairy Belly

Hey I'm 17w2d and am starting to get a hairy belly! I never had hair on my stomach before. Is this happening to any one else?!

  • I've always had peach fuzz but it's even worse now!
  • Yes!! I've never had this before and now it's really hairy and some of it's dark! I tired plucking a few but it hurts a lot and I'm afraid to shave it and have it grow back all prickly, Idk what to do!
  • I used to have a smooth belly. Now there is light blonde peach fuzz growing lol. I have really light, barely there body hair to begin with but this is new!
  • Ah!  I love it when I get on this board and find someone talking about something weird I thought was in my head!  YES!  I have (thankfully) light colored but longer-than-normal hair on my belly!  So glad I'm not alone in this!

  • I have definitely noticed fuzziness on my belly that wasn't there before and it's not too terribly dark. But I definitely notice it so I'm afraid everyone else will too!
  • I have always had a peachfuzzy stomach and now it's so dark and long :( I feel like a nasty man. Or a monkey. I will not be showing anyone my stomach any time soon. Maybe I'll try waxing?

    Unfortunately I'm soooo with you girl. I hate thinking of giving birth looking like an ape.

    Does anyone know if we are allowed to wax our hairy bellies???
  • Waxing sounds SO painful, but shaving just makes it worse!! I look like a monkey. It's seriously so long and dark!!
  • Oooooooh yes! When I first noticed it I was like wtf....!
  • I'm so damn hairy to begin with, so I just feel like a Sasquatch lately. I've been shaving my belly whenever it really bothers me. I'd rather deal with an itchy tummy than looking like a hobbit!
  • This morning I broke down and took my razor up the center of my bump, as that is where the dark hair was. I feel better about it now. I guess I don't mind redoing it every once in a while. I'm pretty compulsive about tweezing and such, I guess this is no different.
    Thank you for mentioning this!!
  • Ha.. Yep, got a little new fuzz going on.
  • Um I thought I was the only one :/ crazy annoying huh?!
  • I think it must be the prenatal vitamins? Or could it be a window to know the baby's sex??? Lol just wondering what you're all having? :D
  • So happy I'm not the only one !!! I've never had hair on my tummy until about 2 weeks ago !
  • OMG! I thought I was alone. I look like a yeti........ :( I feel so gross. My fiancé looked at me the other day as I was changing and he was like awwww you're so hairy. I was like wtf stop looking at me! Haha I wonder if bleaching will help? Is that safe?
  • Hairy yes I am Ewww lol
  • I def have the peach fuzz belly!!!
  • I wish I had the peach fuzz! Mine is like belly pubes! Thick black hair, one tmi! I pluck those suckers out.

    Me too :(
  • Does anyone know if it goes away after child birth? lol it's horrible! I few people told me not to shave it because it does fall off but I'm not sure it really does..
  • I'm so glad I'm not the only one! And trust me it doesn't go away my tummy is a bit fluffy now but I get a couple of long dark one which I pluck it started when I was pregnant before and over 7 years later it's still there. Sorry to break it too you ladies!
  • I have black hair naturally...so zero 'peach fuzz' here. Ugh! I hate to shave it but I hate it. Idk?!
  • I have very light blonde hair all over my belly !! It's super fine & 1/4" long but there for sure.

  • I did have a little before but it seems so much worse now. I'm hoping that as my belly spreads out it won't be so noticeable.lol. I was supposed to go to the beach the other day and my brothers gf suggested I get a bikini and "flaunt the belly" :O I wish!
  • Yup! I started noticing my new hair growth around 14 weeks. I am not shaving it or waxing it because it's very thin and it will fall off after birth. It's just a hairy little reminder that baby is doing a number on my body :0)
  • I shaved mine Bc it was beyond peach fuzz lmao
    ... Plus I like walking around like a pregnant bikini model at home lol
    I hate the weight gain and hair growth but I'm trying to make best of this
  • *Chewbacca roar* yes, I have it too.
  • Just leave it alone! I got a hairy belly with my first and after he was born it all fell out. I have a hairy belly with this one and I plan to rock it until the end. A temporary hairy belly is better than a permanent one. Please ease don't shave it.
  • I got a hairy belly with my first. They looked slightly thinner than leg hairs you get as a teen before you start shaving but they totally go back to normal after the baby gets here
  • I finally took my eyebrow trimmer/dermaplane tool to the hairy tummy. I usually tweeze but I think I finally adopted the "ugh eff it" approach and was super surprised with how easy it was. And no razor bumps or stubble! 

    Definitely recommend getting a hold of some Tinkle eyebrow razors and giving it a go. Especially with bikini season upon us! 
  • I'm 17w3d and my stomach is exactly the same way! I can't bring myself to shave it because I know it will only grow back darker, so I'll stick with my blonde hairy stomach. Haha

    I tweeze 'em and try to get the root. Used to shave it but it comes back dark and thicker. Now I just pluck as I see them. I'm by no means a gorilla but there's hair. Thanks, Hormones.

    This exactly! It goes away after baby. It's not the most attractive thing but I wouldn't want to risk possibly making a permanent change by shaving.
