Your ob/gyn's on speed dial, your bag is packed, but did you schedule your mani/pedi and fresh highlights?
A story in the New York Post revealed a growing trend among women who are determined to look gorgeous even when they're in full-on childbirth. Pregnant mamas are not only going in for traditional mani/pedis in time for their delivery, one Mom, prepping for labor, even went in for a Brazilian wax.
Momlogic's Annie (a proud primper) weighs in:" I was a proud pre-partum primper. I got a mani-pedi, groomed downstairs and had my hair freshly blown out. I also brought a cute outfit to change into after labor so I didn't have to take pictures in my hospital gown. I swear, it helped me feel more normal after childbirth."
Have you glammed up before labor or are you like the rest of us and have hit the maternity ward in a pony tail, no makeup and a look that could easily frighten children and small animals?

I was making coffee when my water broke, no pains, called my mom, (hubby was in Army), asked her to come get me when she got off work, approximately an hour away. While waiting, I took a shower, shaved my legs and washed my hair. I felt much better before and after delivery. By the way, this was my 2nd child.
