Belly button piercings
Sorry if this has been posted before :roll: But my belly button piercing is starting to go weird. The gap between the holes is tiny!
I am wearing an ordinary pre-preg belly bar which fits fine, I did have a maternity one but it kept falling out and the plastic wasn't as secure as the metal so I just kept fiddling lol.
Thing is my belly button is almost completely flat now and I think it will 'pop' out when lo has another growth spurt (I'm 30+1) so what will happen to the piercing then?! Thanks xxx

If it closes up, you can always get it re-pierced. xx
Would prob be best to take it out mate or get a different maternity one - I got a couple off of ebay but I know if you go to a piercing shop they can make one specifically for the size you are.
Take care

Lara - no one at the scans asked me to take it out either. My midwife did mention I should change it for a matenity one soon but that was it.
My ohs cousin kept hers in and she said she had to take it out during labour so they could put the monitors on. It still looks OK, but like mine the holes are really close together. xxx

After the stories on here I will definitely be changing the bar and if it looks bad I will take it out!
They didn't freeze mine at all or numb it, I got it done at a bit of a macho 'We don't feel pain' place LOL....My boyfriend took me. He had his nipple pierced there ages ago and they didn't numb that either, apparently it hurt like hell!!

I have taken the belly bar out now btw and omg I'm glad I did. It looks soooo manky and looks stetched and sore. I had been wearing one of those decorative bars that covered the holes up but now it looks terrible!
