Anyone else experience this? Belly ring.

Question

I took out my belly button piercing at 24 weeks due to it stretching and me being afraid it will rip. (Now I'm keeping in mind I was extremely skinny before I got pregnant) Despite taking it out and now being 36 weeks the piece of skin that was pierced is red and hurts, it feels paper thin.. I am terrified it will rip. I've been applying lotion at night on it, but it's not doing much difference. Anyone experience this, if so what did you do?

Answer

I used coconut oil on my belly and it helped for me. But mine belly button still got red and felt very tight and thin as well. It never got that bad or unbearable though. I’m almost two weeks pp and it now looks like there’s maybe a tiny stretch mark across the pierced skin, but it’s otherwise back to normal.

Answer

Mine did that with my first, never tore just got painful. It’s been 13 years since I had it pierced and 3 years since my last pregnancy. I’m 26 weeks with our second and the skin is already red and irritated, I never put the ring back in after my first so I think it’s just something that happens lol

Answer

Neosporin helps!
