[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Legs are probably ok but, under no circumstances should you shave under your arms. [b]Reason is that you have to raise your arms and this could cause umbilical cord to wrap around neck of fetus.[b]  If you choose yo esx be sure there is no parafin.

Congtatulations on being so conscious of these little things.  I easm't and my poor children have paid the price for my negligence.[/quote]

yeah, that's why so many people avoid lifting their toddlers, reaching for things on high shelves, stretching, and doing pre-natal yoga

not enough  :roll: on the internet for your post[/quote]

Ridiculous.  My OB never mentioned that I should avoid any of those things. Correlation is not causation ladies - and I challenge you to find me one reputable study that links those activities to fetuses with cords wrapped around their necks.  Eye roll, indeed.[/quote]

OMG PEOPLE THE PP WAS JOKING!!  Holy moly can you not detect sarcasm.  She was responding with an "risk" that was equally ridiculous as OP's question!![/quote]

I'm not so sure. This was actual advice given to preg women at one time. [/quote]
