Belly Rings while Pregnant...

Randi Roo
So my 16 week check up was this week and my OBGYN Dr told me I should take out my belly ring or I'm going to have an ugly scar and it will stretch out. What I didn't tell him was I already have a scar there from my appendix being taken out and my belly ring hole is through that scar. So it's going to be there regardless. 
How many of you took out your belly rings while pregnant? How many kept them in? What was the outcome?
