I think theyll prob recommend you take them out just incase you need to go under.... you could wait and take them out when you're ready to burst though.

Id assume you would only need to take them out for a C section, but you can get away with keeping in bioplast/ptfe bars.
I had one for my lip for working as it also hid it.

Another thing, since its the opposite end of the body they might be okay with you keeping them in, i was allowed to keep my tragus in as it was the opposite end to where i needed surgery

I have got tongue, nipple, belly, took belly bar out when pregnant with my daughter but i can still get one through, never took my tongue bar out and no one ever said anything!! Think u will be ok to keep them in chick x x x

The hospitals make you take them out if they see them. Especially if you're having an operation. I'd imagine they take the same precautions with a vaginal birth. Just now you have to have an emergency c-section?

I don't really know why. They're a bit anal about it. My parents always used to joke and say it's so that they cant fall into a cut but I had to take my earrings out with my knee surgery. Not much chance of that happening LOL

I really dont know. Maybe sanitary reasons? Maybe they interfere. Maybe I should ask a doctor sometime lol.

i have 8 lip piercings and an implant under my eye that i cant take out without surgery and i asked around at the hospital and theyre safe but the tongue has to come out! x x x
