tmi nipple piercing in pregnancy

I'm coming up to 20 weeks pregnant and my nipples have obviously started to get bigger 🙈 therefore the bar for my nipple piercing is now too short and the balls of the bar are now pretty much nestling in both sides of my nipple! I really don't want to take it out but I feel like my body may start rejecting the piercing if not, I'm currently undecided on breast feeding or bottle feeding fyi, any advice or experience of this is welcomed 🙏🏻
