All joking aside, the one issue I did feel a little residual embarrassment about after my first labor was hair/grooming related (not involving glitter).  My first had to be induced about 2.5 weeks before my due date which was a total surprise - I was leaking a little fluid - at the time I thought I was just probably leaking a little pee, so when my providers were like "yeah, you're not going home, sweetie" I was pretty unprepared.  And at 37 weeks pregnant I had long since let all below-the-waist grooming go to hell (it was November).  I had planned on tidying up my legs and bikini area a good bit as my due date approached, but I never expected to be having the baby as early as I did... so anyway, I was a hairy beast for everyone who participated in my laboring and the eventual C-section I ended up having.  Of course it's not like I was mortified over it or anything, just something I'd do differently if I had the chance to do over again!  [/quote]
