Piercings?

Hey my darlings.
As most of you may know, my face is full
of metal, hahaha.
But recently, .I took out one of my
liprings &forgot about it, &before
.I remembered that .I had it out, it
closed up &.I couldn't get the jewelry
back in. &.I really love
lovelovelvleovleovelove my liprings, so .I
was super bummed. So .I was wondering..
Does anyone know if it's ok to get
piercings while you're pregnant? 'cause
.I really want it redone &healed
before the baby is born. But .I have no
idea if it's harmful or what. I know
tattoos are pretty much a no-go.. But
what about piercings?

I would think that as long as you go
someplace that you know and they are super
clean it would be fine. I would only
worry about infection. But as long as you
clean it and they use a clean needle you
should be good, right?

Ask your doc first. My doc said no
because your body reacts differently when
pregnant. You may not heal correctly and
it may cause huge problems.

Yea, I don't see why it would hurt...But I
do know that your body reacts differently
while pregnant.
I would just pop it through like I do to
my tongue. It'll close right in the
middle and I just re pierce it. It
hurts...But I can hang!

Well that's the thing,
it's wayyy too late to force the jewelry
back through myself. It's been out for
about 2 months, now. So the hole is
completely closed up. So that's a
no-go.
I think .I may just wait.
I don't want to risk an infection
or anything. Though my piercer is the
best piercer in the state, &he
studied
body modification &trained for
10years.
So he's amazingly talented.
My lip just looks so lonely with only one
ring.
Lol!

years now and took it out about 6 months

Lol no no! I forgot it wasn't there for a
few days.
I honestly don't know how .I forgot! I
was sick
for a while, though, &that side was
really bothering
me so .I took it out for a little bit,
&just forgot .I had!
Lol, .I'll get it redone someday.
*wistful sigh*

I just took out my lipring about 2 weeks
ago...No one in my family understands why
it's so hard to part with those things!
It took like a whole 2 hours for mine to
close up. But I had only had it for like
11 months.
I still have my tongue pierced
though...And I went through too much pain
to get rid of that sucker.

I had my toungue pierced 2 years before I
got pregnant with my son and I didnt' have
to take it out until I had seizures and
the doctors took it out. I got it redone
2 months before I got pregnant with my
daughter and 6 months into my pregnancy it
started to swell and hurt so I had to take
it out. I don't think that i'll get it
re-done.

Some people do and some don't , I did but
I stuck it in everyonce in a while and
would wear if for a few days. Its up to
you. You can get the bendy ones if you
have a fear of it closing up.
