question for moms who've delivered... I had a friend tell me that the nurses shave you down there before you deliver. Is…

@ab, I had never heard it either. When she explained that it was to keep suture/stitch site as clean as possible to prevent infection, I thought it made sense... but nearly everyone I've asked has said they've never heard of that

I personally never had that happen to my family,friends or I but maybe she could mean what one of the girls said up more that they shave the top part before c-section other wise I truly have never heard of that!

@ab, that's why I was thinking maybe it was true!

@ab, yes! so this is what makes it weirder... she has 1 kid, but she's also a labor and delivery nurse!

That is not true at all lol has your friend ever gave birth or has kids?

I delivered and had stitches and there was zero shaving. I could have used that feature but not lucky enough lol 😂

@mommyhammond2016, right?! same here!

I had two kids and no no nurses shaved there that's a limit for me lol

@momma588, I wouldn't either!! lol

They shaved me for my csection, only the front bikini area, with an electric razor thing and I didn't have any issues like razor burn

not something I've ever heard of.

oh okay. well that's understandable.

I much rather shave it myself. I don't know,if I would trust a stranger shaving my whooooha lol. I trust my husband more lol. @levleah

@elenasmommy, seriously! I can't imagine razor burn and ingrown hairs down there after delivering

@momma588, me neither! she said it was in case they needed to do stitches... that shaving down there would decrease infection risk around suture site

I'm hope not I'd have a rash for days lol. My skins very sensitive only I could shave it right and with the right razor 😂😂

wow. I've never heard that before lol.
