Jewelry removed in case of c section?

Question

Does anyone know if they make you remove your jewelry in case of a c section (or I guess even in the case of vaginal delivery)?  Wondering if I should stop wearing my wedding rings so I don't lose them at the hospital...

Answer

I would take them off and leave them at home just in case

Answer

I didn't have to take mine off

Answer

My hospital asks you to remove jewellery that you are able to for a c-section,  but you can keep your wedding ring on and they'll tape over it.

Answer

I hope not because I have a nose piercing that I hope I do not have to take out 😑😒

Answer

My hospital just taped mine up for my c section. I think it depends on your hospitals protocol.

Answer

I wore my ring my whole delivery with no issue.

Answer

I'm at the hospital now still laboring. At my hospital jewelry is fine unless you need a c section, then it would need to come off. My nurses said it can be kept with you, just not physically touching because something can somehow make it burn you.. to be honest I wasn't listening to what could make it burn you since I figured that part doesn't matter much lol

Answer

Yep, everything got to come off

Answer

I had a vaginal delivery and I have 8 piercings and 2 rings. I didn't have to take any of it out/off. :)

Answer

I'm not wearing mine either and sometimes you swell really bad (from what I've heard) and to me rings would hurt on swollen fingers!
