Ps its best to feed baby without having the rings in because depending on how your baby eats you might have to put the whole nipple and then some in his or her mouth plus you wouldn't want baby to swallow or get infection from the rings

I had both nipples pierced 2 yrs ago and this is my first pregnancy I was goin to leave them in but my breast got so big the piercings made the pain worse. My doctor also said they would make it difficult to breast feed and  for safety and give them time to get cleaned to not spread any germs to the baby. At any rate I yo ok them out when I was 12 weeks

I have nipple rings i took mines out at five months i just had my son 11 days ago and i'm breastfeeding him everything is great he's breastfeeding perfectly and i was scared there would be to much milk coming out because of the holes but only little drops come out the holes

Havent done it but it could cause infection, u wont be able to feed while u heal for 2 weeks or more, and baby might swallow the screws at the end. Might be safest to wait until after ur done breastfeeding. U wont be using them for much of anything anyways lol. They will be baby food
