I had one too. I am 33 and had it done when I was 22. Once it is healed, take it out and replace it with a loop of fishing line. That will keep it open in case you want to put it back in after the baby is born. I didn't do it. Mine loosened and fell down the drain in the shower when I was 26, and I just never got a new ring. The hole is still open, but now that I have had two children and am a stay at home mom, I have no interest.

I have had a belly ring now for the last 4 years. I was able to keep mine in for the entire pregnancy with no problems. All I did was replace the original jewellery with one that had a longer stem... so more room to grow. Check American Pregnancy dot org and look for their piercing info. Its really good. You can also get special jewellery for pregnant bellies... try googling it. Good luck and hope this helped!

I am 24 and have had mine since i was 16..
I found this website called pregnancypiercings.com
They offer a belly ring custom made for pregnancy...and they arent too bad looking either!
I am 22 weeks along now and have had no problems so far...i have no belly button but my piercing is doing great!

I was just reading in a pregnancy magazine today at the doctor's office about the website Meggie suggested....pregnancypiercings.com. It got good reviews and with shipping and handling its less than twenty dollars. I think i may purchase one. I'm twenty weeks and it looks like my belly button is going to pop out soon so I may try this. I'm just not ready to give up my piercing. It's been a part of me for so long now!
