Ring a belly?
by Real moms-to-be
"I have had a belly ring for about seven years now and I still love it. However, I am not sure exactly when or if I need to remove it. I guess I would have to if my belly button pops out. Anyone know about this or have a similar situation?" - Christine
"I had one too, and on my last appointment, the first thing my Ob said when she did my ultrasound was, ‘That thing has to come out!' So that night, my husband took it out for me. I've had mine for about seven years now, too, and it looks sooo funny without it in. My doctor said I can put it back in if I want after the baby comes." - Tara
"I had my belly pierced when I got pregnant with my first child. And it has to come out. Your skin will tear and get irritated if you leave it in. I left mine in, and it did that. The infection could also harm the baby, I found out. To get it removed, just go down to a tattoo parlor and have them remove it, or take cutters to it and just cut it." - April
"I guess I am the odd one here! I have had a belly ring for about 10 years. It has gone through three pregnancies and three deliveries. Never had a problem! I would wait to see how your belly ring is affected by your growing belly before deciding it needs to come out." - Tiffany
"I asked my doctor at my first appointment whether he thought I should take mine out, and he took a look at it and said he didn't think it would be a problem. Perhaps it depends on each individual. I think the sexiness of it has disappeared with my waistline, but I'm going to try to keep it in and see what happens." - Joanne
