Belly ring?

Did anyone else remove their belly button ring during pregnancy?  If so, how soon? And Should I?

I'm on my 4th pregnancy and had mine in with all 3. And this one still. I only took it out when I was ready to deliver maybe a week or two before.

I'm 8 months and my mom & boyfriend just made me take mines out :( they was scared that it can harm the baby or something lol so they don't want me with no belly piercing until I have him. Sigh

Last pregnancy , I took the regular one out at 6 months and took the pregnancy one out at 9 months . Mine never ripped . This pregnancy , took my normal one out at 5 months and then my oldest son pulled my pregnancy one out so I just kept it out and it's still open (: but I have to take mine out anyway due to having another csection .

I ordered my maternity ring off eBay and I switched from a regular belly ring to a maternity ring it as soon as a started getting my "bump". My aunt left her regular one in her whole pregnancy and now it isn't even on her belly button, it's about 4 inches above her belly button.

I took mine out at like 14 weeks because everyone told me I would get stretch marks and my baby doctor is kind of old fashioned and didn't like me having it. But I see alot of pregnant women who've kept theres in and they don't have stretch marks...I wish I would have kept mine.

I have a belly ring and never changed it or took it out. I'm almost 37 weeks and its not ripping out or anything like that. It's up to you when and if to change or remove it. They will make you take it out while in labor tho but otherwise it's completely up to you

They do make maternity bars for the belly rings. I'm not sure where you'd get one but I had a friend that used them when she was pregnant
