Grooming the bits...

All right, ladies... Time to divulge! Who else has completely given up on their nether regions? I'm still doing my hair and makeup and dressing well, but hell if I'm going to bother grooming my crotch when I'm feeling this crappy!

For those of you who still have the motivation, tell me your secrets!

  • I let my husband do the grooming :) he enjoys it and I don't have to be bothered! ;)
  • I'll probably wax for the summer as I swim my kids but come fall I don't do much!

  • I always try to take care of the hair. I'm not a big fan of it too much! I do let it grow a little longer in between grooming sessions however I feel so much better myself when it's done!

    I think if I let my husband do this for me I'd end up with bumps and or a few cuts

    We use electric clippers :)
  • I let it grow for about 3 weeks, which I never do, but I had my u/s today and thought it'd be pretty embarrassing to let my Dr see me that way even though I'm sure she wouldn't care.

  • I take advantage when I take my baths. I feel better once ive relaxed in the warm water. Unfortunately for myself I've been sweating more since I've been pregnant, ahem, down south. So I find it unbearable with hair.
  • I have no waxed or shaved anything but my armpits since I found out I was pregnant. I feel crappy and have slept til 2pm so today is the day to get rid of it and tweeze my eyebrows, and nair my stash #8.6weeksstrong
  • I still take care of mine just because if I don't, it'll drive me nuts.. So every 3 days or so I shave. But when I get large and in charge, I doubt I'll even be able too successfully. Lol. My other half said he would help me but that makes me just a bit nervous. Lmao.
  • I have a really good personal trimmer and DH does it for me 1x per week, talk about trust! I do his naughty bits too when they need it but not as often as mine.
  • I just really hate hair.. down there.. so that's motivation enough for me.

    I don't think I gave up on them at all when I was pregnant with #1. (He was a January baby, as well)

    I groom often because we go swimming a ton. And during the winter, when I'm bigger, I'll just be extra careful.

  • I've gotten regular waxes, though I am more sensitive than before. We'll see how long I continue before I just give up. Husband prefers less down there and I find I feel cleaner.
  • Never had an issue, even when I was bigger at the end. I also always painted my toenails and tied my own shoes. You don't get THAT huge, unless you're carrying multiples.

    I love all these comments! I want to try and keep up with it but my husband and I do a lot of distance for our work, so sometimes I get slack. 
  • Oh lawdy! I've been thinking about this off and on! So glad you started this post. I've been doing slight "scaping" but it is not anywhere near what I would normally be doing during the summer. Bikini line is priority (when I feel like it) other than that trim. I have an awesome trimmer that's meant to be used for that area.

    Or you eat too much and already have a really short torso like me :). Nowhere to go but out.
  • Pssh...I gave up grooming weeks ago. I barely have the energy to brush my teeth. And since DH is the only one who sees the naughty bits, I'm more concerned with keeping up with other areas of hygiene. At least I still shower daily... 
  • Eh, I'm planning on just landscaping before appointments. lol! My boyfriend likes to do it - so I let him have fun with it. It's practice for when I'm so big I can't see my feet. I might need to get him trained on my legs though - cause let's face it. I don't feel like doing it. At least I have my armpits shaved.. Right?
  • I've managed to keep up with the goods however , I have absolutely no sex drive because if the nausea :/ anyone else have this problem ?
  • I get waxed every 5 weeks and will continue to do so for the rest of my capable life! Already talked to my waxer, she said she'll just have me sit in different positions when I get huge. ;;)

    I dunno, I didn't gain any extra weight with my first pregnancy (came back from the hospital the same weight as my pre-pregnancy weight), and I could not do my nether regions. But I need a reasonable line of vision to to feel comfortable trimming. I don't like using mirrors. I could reach it but was constantly near nipping myself.

    But honestly, I think I gave up on regular grooming since college. I only trim if I feel that oral sex isn't as enjoyable.

    The first trimester hormones kill my sex drive. Last time, the second trimester more than made up for it. But by that time, I was huge (I popped early) and hubby was weirded out about having sex. I was one frustrated huge woman.

    Had this problem with DD the entire pregnancy and again with this one. I can't even stand to cuddle with his hand on my stomach and keep from getting nauseous! It's a struggle.
  • I feel the same way. I feel completely like shit everyday and don't want to have to shave and it sucks because I can shave my under arms and legs and then 2 days the hair is growing back and noticeable but I feel that every time I go to the doctor it needs to be
  • I had laser hair removal arm pits and lady parts. Best thing I ever did for myself!!!!

    So jealous!!! I wish I could do this plus my legs!
  • Haven't had my legs done yet but eventually I will. It is so awesome to put on a swimsuit and not worry about anything. Or a sleeveless top and know my armpits are hairless! I forgot I also had my upper lip and eyebrows done too.

    I can't stand hair in the nether regions so I'll take care of it best I can when it gets difficult It's basically the feel and pray method lol
  • I'd love to do laser hair removal! For now I wax, it's the best. Take it all away!

  • I keep it trim. There was a short period right in the beginning I didn't do anything out of pure exhaustion but after two ultrasounds I was pretty embarassed. My hubby has already agreed to do it when I'm too big to see down there!
  • Sex isn't even a passing thought for me right now. Right now, my main squeeze is the toilet bowl...which is where I spend 3/4 of my time. I can barely have my own pants touching my stomach without discomfort, so I certainly can't even fathom groping right now. :-S
  • I let my husband do the grooming :) he enjoys it and I don't have to be bothered! ;)

    Me too! He certainly has a better vantage point than I do. Lol.
  • My husband can shear a sheep really cleanly, and can keep himself tidy but it would still make me nervous to hand him the razor to do my trimming... I had lazer removal too so only get slight regrowth now(it was nearly 10 years ago I had it). I'll just see how I go... As for sex dive- nope I ain't got it- nausea is such a killjoy!
  • Hmm sex 'dive' is probably accurate... But obviously I meant 'drive' :-)

    Its winter in South Africa, So I have just given up on grooming down there and sex just make me want to puke :(
