That clean, close shave
Today someone reached my site via this search term:
doctors recommendation for shaving vulva
I haven't asked or anything, but I'm pretty sure my doctor doesn't have a ready recommendation for vulva-shaving.

other than "be very very careful"
And perhaps, "Don't use a Garden Weasel."
and: "don't forget to send pictures."
Okay, that was kind of gross. But I'm having a bad day over here.
Whahahahaha. Even at your worst you are utterly sublime.
I'd be more concerned that there was hair on it in the first place... let alone worried over how to deal with it!
OK, you know what, I've had a blog entry rolling around in my head for weeks now on the etiquette of bikini waxes and this entry just put the whole thing in order in my head! Gonna go type it up right now!
*puzzled look* (clears throat) "Well. Yes. I, ah, well, perhaps an, a, dermatologist could, ah, advise on that. I don't, ah, well, have any advice for you on that. Good, ah, (clears throat) luck."
Gee, I guess a "Weed Whacker" would be out of the question, wouldn't it??
Perhaps she meant to say: do I need a reccomendation from my doctor to shave my vulva? Hey, that'd be the only reason I'd be getting a razor down there! I get a bad enough rash just from shaving my legs! **Shudder, twitch, blacking ouuuuuuuuuuuttt........**
I have found that my doctor prefers my initials and a heart or flower design shaved into the region. It makes the doctor feel more at ease and less likely to forget my name. I have some lovely bunny templates for the coming Easter season.
How about: ***BLESS THIS MESS***
(I...I am quoting myself. I apologize.)
Actually I am tempted to go in there with a huge merkin, one I make myself out of fake fur with a slit cut in it and elastic straps around my legs and waist. Or maybe you could just retrofit a novelty chest wig, again with a discreet slit in the middle.
Now I am imagining fixing up an Instead menstrual cup with googly eyes and a painted-on mouth. Speculum Surprise!
Olivia, I LOVE the Bunny templates! you should make a baby chickie one for the natural blonds too!!! Maybe you could advertize in Julie & getupgirrl's future magazine!!!!!!!!!! hahahahahahahahahaha "seasonal snatch design templates - just right for that special occasion (or when you're feeling a bit bored"
how bout a lightning bolt? Lip shape (no pun intended!!)? Ohhhh, the possibilities are endless!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
hahahahahahhaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!!!!!!!!!! (oops! maybe one too many xanax??)
Thank you SO much for providing some comic relief to this all-too-serious ordeal. I am currently 8 days post embryo transfer and going insane. I have been reading your logs and laughing hysterically!
ProgesteRack - I loved it!
Have just found your site and think it's a complete hoot. I am pregnant 12 weeks & had a scare with cramps/bleeding, but okay at the moment. Am reading your blog mainly cos it's extremely witty, but also cos my friend has been having ivf for over a year and it's giving me a little insight, will just keep reading your archives from 2004- to see how you finally did it. Anyway you're fab
