I have a belly button piercing and I'm pregnant now. I'm worried if it will cause any issues as my belly grows. Should I remove it or is it fine to keep it during pregnancy?
Since our bodies can be a bit sensitive, I'd suggest taking it out. Why risk any infection or skin tearing when we are already dealing with so many hormonal changes, na?
Oh God, with all my crazy midnight ice cream and cheese toast cravings, my tummy is growing so fast! I can't imagine having a piercing stretch like that, it's better to remove it before the bump gets huge.
Oh god, I would constantly worry about the piercing getting caught in my maternity pants or tearing the skin! Please take it out for peace of mind, you can always get it repierced later.
Honestly, don't waste money buying those expensive flexible pregnancy rings. Just take the piercing out because hospital delivery and scan costs are already so high, we don't need extra infection doctor bills.
Just take it off, guys, seriously. Your skin is going to stretch a lot in the second and third trimesters, and a metal ring will just cause irritation and itchiness.
