Piercings?

Question

Can you get piercings while pregnant? I searched it on google but it’s telling me yes & no i just want a simple lip piercing

Answer

They recommend not to because when you're pregnant you're at higher risk of infection  (immune compromised) and infection can hurt the pregnancy. But the piercing itself isn't an issue.

Answer

Yeah I got my tongue pierced

Answer

I think it’s generally a do it at your own risk scenario. Simply because your immune system is suppressed so it COULD make the wound longer to heal/risk an infection. I’ve wanted new ear piercings but waited because I suffer with the healing process anyway

Answer

I know someone who did. They had no issues

Answer

I wouldn't. your body doesn't heal as quickly when you're pregnant. in fact,  one of my old piercings got infected when I got pregnant and so did a tiny cut on my thumb. it took both forever to heal.
