Makeup In labour 😂

Is anyone going to take their makeup bag into the hospital with them, im watching one born every minute and one of the midwives said she did her makeup and made sure her hair was done when she had baby so her photos after birth looked good as she looked rough as toast the first time round 😂 I usually wear a full face and eyelashes every day, doing my makeup might actually get me through labour

Oh I'm taking my entire vanity case with me 😂 Most likely having an epidural all being well so I'll have plenty of time to touch up my make up etc lol. I know I'll definitely feel better than I would if I went make up free feeling like a mess x

If you want to wear makeup while in labour, take it with you. Better to have it with you and then you can choose. Make sure it's within easy reach so helpers can find it quickly.

@Sehri to each their own 🥰

No, absolutely not. I didn't take any makeup when I had my first and won't be for this one either. I don't want to get makeup on my newborn baby's skin and I also don't expect my appearance to be on my mind all that much when my vagina is on fire.

@Jaz Cold flannel felt amazing last time, I’ve packed one again 🥰

Labour is like running a marathon, I was a hot sweaty mess last time. If I go into labour with makeup on this time, the first thing I’m doing is taking it off 😅😂

I’m planning to have a water birth so it doesn’t feel like there is much point 😂

I’m not planning to as I suspect I’ll feel grotty/sweaty and make up wouldn’t help me personally, whereas I’d opt for a cold flannel etc. This is about what makes you feel good so if it’s a full face then go for it! Anything that makes you feel confident and happy is a yes 🤗

@Rebecca i have an apt to get lvl lashes done, I understand not caring what you look like in labour cause obvs there is more things to worry about, but I feel like it will wake me up and doing my makeup always makes me feel like I can do anything 😂 let’s go full glam hahah

I’m taking a little bit in with me, just the essentials to make me look, and more importantly feel, a bit more awake and alive 😂
