Infected piercings and pregnancy
I have had my belly button pierced for the last 12 years. I was already beginning to think about having to take it out soon as its starting to stick out as my belly grows but today it felt sore so I had a look and the area around the ball is very red and there was a small bit of puss. I went to the chemist and got some antiseptic spray but is it ok to just monitor it for a couple of days and see how it goes or should I get it looked at because I am pg? If I wasn't pg I would just do the monitor option but should I be a bit more careful given the proximity to my uterus or am I just stressing over something minor as per usual :D

Tip: put some stretch mark cream around the ring once the infection is gone.
I took my bar out at 11weeks, and now after bubs is here, where my ring was has a star like stretch mark.
