I just got a naval piercings a little over a week ago and my piercer - a very trusted and professional man with many piercings himself - gave me firm instructions to NOT twist or remove my naval piercings until it is healed. If you remove it, you're likely to get an infection. It takes 3 - 6 months for a naval piercing to heal, so save yourself the pain and leave the ring alone.

--Just to add more to the previous answer, if your current bar is too long once the swelling goes down, you can go to your piercer for them to put in a shorter bar. Even if it hasn't been 3-6 months. Just don't change it yourself till its completely healed

Is a lip ring and a belly button ring the save bar size?

They are both pierced the same as far as I know but you have to wait as long as 6 weeks to change the gauge size, length and the shape. However, you placed this in Pregnancy and Health and Safety. It is not recommended to pierce while being pregnant. IF an infection occurs the toxins can be directed to your baby and CAN cause harm. So the ear piercings are not as big a deal as the belly button would be. Check with the piercer and of course research all you can on the different and safest locations to avoid infection.


When does a pregnant woman's belly button start to stick out?

That very much depends on your body/belly button type, how big you get and when you 'pop'. Some women have their belly buttons pop out as early as 14 weeks! Some women don't have it happen until their third trimester. It also changes; your belly button can pop a bit, and then kind of even out with your belly not seem as big since the belly is huge.
