I need some advise ....
I've got a line of dark unsightly hair from my belly button downwards which
I usually wax off. Since being pregnant I've stopped waxing that bit as I'm not sure if it will hurt my baby. DH tells me it won't but I'm not sure. Can anyone advise? I'm 14 weeks. EDD 11th January 2004. |

I need some advise ....
I didn't reply before because you already posted this and got the right answer. I wouldn't hesitate to wax in pregnancy. I have had one leg waxing session around week 13 or so and need to schedule another. It's been nice that from the hormonal changes my dark hair grows much slower. Is it because it's on your stomach that has you concerned? The baby is way down below layers of fat, muscle, and fluid. Your hair grows from the skin only, which is on top of all that. I'd say the only way your baby would notice anything is if the pain of waxing caused some massive stress reaction in your body, in which case the experience for the baby would be about the same as if you stubbed your toe. I guess you might also be worried about the heat, but the wax is only on your skin for a short time and the baby is too well insulated. Sorry if I'm not grasping the problem -- If we understood your concern, we could probably address better -- -- Dagny EDD 10/6/03 "Mom2B" wrote in message ...
