Waxing is getting really painful for me now in 5th month so was thinking of switching to a cream instead. But thoda scared because of the chemicals and smell. Anyone used it safely?
Many women avoid the chemical creams during pregnancy because the skin gets more sensitive and reactive. I switched to a razor or waxing which felt safer. If you really want to use a cream, do a patch test and maybe ask your doctor first.
Honestly the skin becomes super sensitive in pregnancy, I got a rash from a cream I had always used. I just shaved or waxed instead, no issues. If you use cream, patch test it for sure.
Yaar I just switched to waxing and shaving to be safe, didnt want to risk the strong smell and chemicals. Dont stress about it too much, plenty of easy options. Patch test if you go for cream.
