What to do with a belly button ring?

Question

I recently found out that I'm pregnant and have been thinking about EVERYTHING. One of the things that's crossed my mind is when I'll have to take out my belly button ring. Do any of you have recommendations to lessen the scarring and/or did any of you put your ring back in after having your baby? Any advice is helpful :). Thanks!

Answer

I bought a pregnancy belly ring and I'm almost due! It's worked perfectly! I bought it on amazon for super cheap!

Answer

My first pregnancy I did not remove mine (I have 3!) Until I was in labour and I had to because they were metal. I do have some scarring? It more just looks like stretch marks.

This pregnancy I think I'll have to take them out earlier though. I'm getting a lot bigger a lot sooner. I think I'm going to try the pregnancy navel rings. If they don't work out I'm faith confident my holes will still be there after birth. I've had these guys for 10 years on 5he top, 7 years on the bottom 2.

Answer

Take it out. It's the one place I got a stretch mark

Answer

I took mines out soon as  I found out I was  pregnant  .

Answer

I just took mine out when I started showing. I've had it pierced for 10 years so I doubt it will close up.

Answer

I'm nearly 17 weeks and still wearing my normal one with no issue. As my belly gets bigger I'll take it out and just stick it in the hole every so often to make sure it doesn't close up. I wouldn't bother with the maternity bars

Answer

I removed mine haven't put it back since no scaring or issues.

Answer

I left mine in for both of my babies til bout the end of the 8th month to the beginning of my 9th month and about 2 weeks after delivery I put it back in and my whole never closed, it just depends on ur body! Hope this helps!!

Answer

If you've had it for a couple year it won't grow up in 9 months. Is take it out. Makes it way more comfortable than having to deal with that in your growing belly.

Answer

I got mine when I was almost 15 and I had my baby at almost 19 had it in all pregnancy with no problem and dr never said anything but had to remove it at the hospital you know it's metal but put it back like 2-3 week later because I totally forgot about it
