Hi there... I know generally speaking you are meant to remove your belly button ring when you develop a bump. If I have to I'm more than happy to take it out, but I did that a few years back and the hole never went away, so I ended up getting it re-pierced because I thought that looked better than just the hole sitting above it.

Anyway, I have come across these maternity belly button rings which are made of a flexible plastic type material which are supposedly safe to wear all the way through your pregnancy. They're quite a bit longer than your standard one so there is room to grow and because they are flexible they aren't meant to cause any tearing etc.

Just wondering if anyone else has used one of these before and how you found it... Also, what happened to it when your belly button popped?
