belly button piercing

So I'm 10 weeks 1 day. I've had my belly button pierced for about 3-4 years now. I have yet to EVER take it out. Now I'm honestly not showing yet, but I am curious to know if any of you gals out there with bellies pierced, did you take them out for pregnancy or leave it in? I don't want to get so big it will rip out, but at the same time, I've never taken it out and really don't want to... hmmm :/
I'm sure it won't close up, will it? If it's out for months at a time...

I got mine done at 16 and after ripping it twice i finally took it off at 19 and never put it back in. Im 21 now and at 33weeks pregnant i have three little stretch marks in a star shape around it and my belly pop out so much thst i can see both the top and bottom hole. Its not really pretty :S but i also ripped by piercing off twice so i have a scar on top of all that. I regret getting it pierced now lol it was a stupid teen thing for me to do. To me of course. I never really wanted it but my bff wanted too and there was a 2for1 deal every wednesday. So i did it so she wouldnt have to pay 60bucks lol

I got mine pierced when I was 13 , had our first son when I was 18 and took it out when I was about 4mths pregnant, I was able to get it back in after no problem , but then honestly just got tired of it so I took it out.

I've had mine done for 10 years! Just took it out to be safe. I was about 7 weeks. Still there. I don't think it will close. I'm not sure.

They make pregnancy belly rings, instead of metal they're like gel or plastic and they are supposed to stretch as your belly grows, my sister inlaw had them & they worked & looked normal. :)

I've got a deep inny too, so I should have nothing to worry about then :)
It didn't hurt thought the stretching at all?

Look up pregnancy belly bars on ebay, professionally recomended to use them while pregnant, keeps the piercing there and is comfy

I took mine out with my twins but my belly button is still f'ed up. Its all stretched where the piercing was and looks like a,second belly button. So regret that 18 year old rebel. Im 29 now and getting my belly done back then was my way of acting out. Lol
