You need to take out your belly ring but leave everything else in. The problem is that your stomach will stretch and could pop it out one day and that wouldnt feel too pretty. But every other peircing should be fine.

Oh ok.... Do you have a ring or a barbell in ur tragus?? Cuz I have had my tragus pierced 2 times and the first time I got it with a ring and it got soooo infcted it was nasty but now I have a barbell..... You could also use the stuff from clairs or something when u get ur ears pierced u have to get stuff to clean it I dunno what the name is but that works wonders!! I used that on all my piercings expect my tounge and its like only $4 dollars or something its cheap....

You should be fine as long as you will have to worry about is the naval piercing. Have you thought about the pregnancy saver ring? My friend tried that out when she got preggity...
Pregnancy
Arrow Arrow some women have successfully worn navel piercing jewellery throughout pregnancy. In other cases, the navel ridge pops out, making the jewellery uncomfortable. Monofilament nylon or teflon is a more flexible option to metal jewellery. A piercing that has been completely healed for several years will most likely remain open if the jewellery is not worn; it will shrink, necessitating the aid of an insertion taper to install the original jewelery.



This is from a md-
Arrow dear liesel,
there is no automatic medical reason for you to remove your belly button ring during pregnancy. Most women do have changes of the belly button late in pregnancy, even women who are thin and fit--it kind of flattens out. While you may find that the ring gets uncomfortable as your tummy grows, you can always take it out later on if it bothers you. You also may want to ask your doctor or midwife what her policy is on this issue. Some practitioners request that you remove the ring temporarily during labor.

While many women feel beautiful during pregnancy, it can be an assault to one's body image. Holding on to those things that you enjoyed before pregnancy can help you remember who you are outside of your new role as mom-to-be. So if you want to keep the ring as part of your old identity, enjoy. You can respond to your body's changes if and when it becomes necessary.

U dont hafta take out ur bell ring.... But if u leave it in u could get a loong nasty scar above where it was. I took mine out when I was 3 months n I put it back in 15 minutes after my labour... The whole never closed n I didnt get a nasty scar... So it will prolly be best if u took it out.
