I am pregnant and need to change my triangle jewellery for something non-metal. Can you recommend PTFE or Bioplast, straight or curved barbell or captive (what I have now).

Are you talking about just changing the jewellery over prior to birth, per the hospital’s requirements? I’d suggest a PTFE barbell of appropriate gauge and length would be fine, if you’re concerned about the piercing closing. I actually removed all the jewellery from my genital piercings in early labour as a precaution and was really glad I did, I didn’t tear at all but certainly feel that having jewellery of any sort to resist against the stretching tissue wouldn’t have improved my chances of staying intact!

Congratulations and good luck to you and your baby, too!
