Im 25 weeks pregnant & want to get my lip piercing redone. my piercings never got infected before, is it safe to get it redone?

Wait.: You are more susceptible to infections while you are pregnant. What's the rush? Pregnancy is complex enough; why add the risk of infection to it? Is there any particular reason you can't wait another 15 weeks, since you've waited this long?

Piercing: It is recommended that no unnecessary procedures be done during pregnancy. Please wait until after your pregnancy is over to get piercings done.
