Is it safe to use hair removing cream on hands and legs during pregnancy period?

That’s a good question. I’d say to ask your doctor about that one. Personally, I’ve been advised to stay away from strong chemicals…and hair removing cream definitely contains some chemicals. I’d actually be surprised if you could stomach the smell while pregnant. That stuff stinks! 😛 Anyway, I’d be careful when it comes to chemicals. Topical stuff can penetrate the skin/get into the blood stream. I had to stop using some dermatologist cream for blemishes when I got pregnant, because of possible side effects that could hurt the baby if it got into my blood stream. Maybe consider getting waxed instead, at least until you have a solid answer from a nurse/doctor. Getting waxed hurts like the dickens, but lasts a long time!
