LoL...stop watching! I got the pedicure & plan on that again. Brought makeup for after, but no one really expects you to look great after giving birth! And they call it LABOR for a reason. We took some very honest looking pics of an exhausted new mom holding DS right after he was born, & I wouldn`t trade them for anything.

i had planned on looking good but my water broke when i had just got out of hte shower so all my makeup was off and my hair was up after a while i just didn`t care anymore:)

Yeah i didnt put any makeup on. No contacts either. I just cared about being showered and legs/vaj shaved! Labor is a workout, hair and makeup would get messy during the process. Why bother?

nope, pretty sure that will be the last thing on my mind

My make up and hair was the last thing I was thinking about when I was in labor! I don`t think I did anything to my hair except wash it for weeks after she was born!

I was induced with both of my boys, so I was in full make-up, and fixed hair. People thought I was crazy, but I still looked good when I was done having them.... I think it depends on whether or not your delivery is scheduled too.... You wouldn`t take the time to get fully fixed up, if you were having awful contractions, and needing to go............

The absolute last thing in my mind was whether or not I looked good when I delivered my son. And I knew I wouldn`t care ahead of time so I didn`t bother. I did pack the basic makeup for when I left the hospital for the coming home pics, but I don`t even think I ended up putting it on. I was too tired.

I hadn`t planned on wearing makeup but I did want to look nice when it was time. That didn`t work out. I had just got in bed when contractions started and I was in far too much pain to mess about with hair and makeup and labour was quick as well.

i planed on it but it didnt really work out that way both times

I plan to have my make up done, i would hate to have no make up on!! be my luck tho that i wont have any on when its time. lol. I dont mind if its not full make up, just enough so that i dont look like death warmed up. x

i had always planned to but the minute i went into labor it wasn`t on my mind anymore lol :) as soon as i had the baby tho..i went straight to the shower and fixed myself up !

mommyjenn88 (960.8 days ago)
well i plan on putting makeup on, but i am wearing my hair in a pony cause i dont want it in the way. im wearing socks too so a pedicure doesnt matter.

cncmom (960.8 days ago)
I had a scheduled c section both times so I took a shower before I left for the hopital and completely got myself ready. I wanted to look good for when my son`s first saw their mommy! Ha!

dedileb (960.8 days ago)
thing is i watch way too many baby shows and there are soo many women that go to the hospital looking good, from the hair to the nails and makeup and i just wonder how many mom plan that...

  1. Thanks to my twin`s ability to trek down here, my records are straightened out! I will be having my first appointment on February 29th. I will be 10 weeks-ish. Around here that is about when they want to see you. When did you get your first appointment?
  2. What do you think is better (or worse) for kids? TV or video games?
  3. I`m interesed in getting an innotab for my kids. Are the extra downloads pricey? How is the product as a whole?
  4. Thought they were fixing the problem with the profiles? Mine is now starting to disappear and most of my friends profiles are gone. Is it getting fixed or what because its more than a joke at the moment. Maybe its the ads causing the problems because its the only thing that seems to stay when the profiles disappear.
  5. If you had a `favourable` cervix (started to dilate and soft) did a membrane sweep work for you?
  6. Should I buy my sister a Belly Bandit for her shower? She said that is what she wanted when I asked. I just have a hard time spending that much money on some thing she might niot like. Especially because it was me who put the dumb :) idea in her head!! I bought and used one for three out of my four and loved it...but is it for everyone? Or should I throw down the money to something more practical?
  7. Are your children exposed to two hours or less of TV per day? (This includes when your shows are on and they are awake and around at the same time in the same room)


  8. Just finished making a birthday cake for the first time from our baby girl for her daddys bday tomorrow :o)
  9. Extension of last Valentine question..I should clarify that we are having V-day dinner tomorrow alone but still just the fact that he bought our gifts at the same time at the same place bugs the s-it out of me. He knows I like plants and I`m pretty sure he went to a nice nursey and got me one but the fact is he told me he got his mom a small little plant. OMG I fee like I total b-tch but I feel like telling him I know what he probably got me and I do not want anything that you are giving your mom!! But then he wopuld know I snooped and saw where he went on our checking account.
  10. O.k I know this is a off the wall question..Is it weird and selfish of me to be annoyed that my husband has is giving his mom a Vanetine gift and card tonight when she comes over and wants to give me mine too today? I know I`m probably being sensitive and I feel bad that I made the comment `if you give me the same thing as your mom I`m gonna cry`. He said I should`nt ruin the surprise and I told him I was sorry but I just wanted our Valentines seperate because everything includes his family and it`s a day for lovers. Am I....
