I did my very first waxing solution a couple of months before, and at the same time it, was also my first time to wax. I was afraid of the pain that would come, but as soon as I pulled the cloth, I was surprised to know that the pain was tolerable. Since then, I have been waxing at the comfort of my own house. :)<br /><br /><br /><a href="http://www.bareease.com/how-to" rel="nofollow">Justine Cricks</a>Justine Crickshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13552488135598921404noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20642800.post-20077640429184464542010-10-26T15:16:08.622-04:002010-10-26T15:16:08.622-04:00I doubt that waxing affects or causes varicose vei...I doubt that waxing affects or causes varicose veins. I waxed for years and wasn't even waxing during my second pregnancy (when my VV first cropped up). In fact, I first discovered my VV when I was waxing my legs for the first time at around 20 weeks pregnant...I was like "what are THOSE THINGS ON MY LEGS!?"Rixahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07908864785513937876noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20642800.post-14709427414736261472010-10-26T14:01:14.521-04:002010-10-26T14:01:14.521-04:00Anonymous...my .02.

No one ever sees my legs anyway. The hair is still bothering me a little bit, but I hope over time it won't be an issue for me anymore.

The past few weeks I've been sleeping so much better. My body adjusted to side-sleeping and now I'm getting up once, maybe twice at the most, to pee. Ahhhh....amazing. The most annoying thing now is a persistent semi-stuffy nose that only starts at night when I lie down. I think it's going away though.Rixahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07908864785513937876noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20642800.post-31581423448802215662010-10-15T19:52:32.917-04:002010-10-15T19:52:32.917-04:00So, I'm finally getting around to catching up ...So, I'm finally getting around to catching up on all that's been happening with you. (I'm 17 weeks into my second pregnancy...and it's keeping me exhausted and busy). <br /><br />If I actually cared about leg hair, I would definitely try this. Maybe one day I'll give it a go. I also hate shaving.<br /><br />SO, I was reading about your sleep deprivation, and I have had the exact same issue the entire 9 months with my first, and so far with my second as well. The first pregnancy, I was just miserable and exhausted. I remember after having the baby, I actually slept so much more and was more energized than I had been in 9 months. This time around, while chasing a 15 month old and being in school full-time, there was just no way that I could survive without sleep. I have resorted to taking Tylenol PM at night. I still wake up to go to the bathroom once, but not more, and I go RIGHT back to sleep, feeling like I never woke up to begin with.<br /><br />I am very anti-medication, but at this point, it's a matter of survival and not losing my sanity!! So, just wanted to pass on my experience in case it might help you out. = )<br /><br />Best wishes for a happy and healthy pregnancy, and more sleep!<br />Love,<br />CarolineCaroline @ The Feminist Housewifehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14042647064869326025noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20642800.post-56978317686977652102010-10-15T17:57:06.023-04:002010-10-15T17:57:06.023-04:00Yes, it's a roller thing that came in a waxing...Yes, it's a roller thing that came in a waxing kit.
