Don’t Also Add Hunter To My Work – Midwife Pleads With Pregnant Women To Shave Before Coming To Give Birth

• She made this appeal on her Facebook account, advising women to ask their partners for help or to use a mirror if necessary.

Joy Eke Ilediagu, a Nigerian midwife, has requested that pregnant women consider shaving their pubic hair prior to their hospital visit for delivery.

She posted this message on Facebook, recommending that they seek help from their partners or use a mirror if they are unable to do it themselves.

She wrote: “Don’t appear like this in labour.

“Help us and help yourself..as soon as you enter the last days of your pregnancy please keep the racing field clean…always shave please.

“If your partner is not helping use mirror.

“If not for anybody just imagine if your baby is coming out and mistakenly grab that hair..my sister e no go funny (jokes though).

“But to be sincere if you know how happy your midwife or doctor will feel when you do a good job down there..it can even help prevent you from tears because that area will be easy to guide

“I’m just a midwife don’t also add hunter work to my job..some will come into labour with a thick forest.

“I know I have good women here who always look clean while coming into labour.

“Let’s have a symbol that you are well informed by your favourite midwife.”
