Two Weird Questions - Bleach and Nipple Piercings

Okay, I have two questions and figured I'd just lump them into one discussion. They're two completely separate questions, so don't freak out by the title! 
Does anyone have any experience with nipple piercings throughout pregnancy/breast feeding? Was it painful? I'm debating on just taking them out since I'd have to remove them for every feeding anyway. 

Second question; I use Jolen bleach to bleach the hairs on my face (sideburns, upper lip) does anyone know if this would still be safe to use? I'm afraid of the hairs getting darker now (and there being more) thanks to all of these lovely hormones!

TIA (:

    I took my nipple piercings out with my first. I didn't want to take the chance of the baby swallowing anything...

    No idea about the bleach. I know the first trimester is the most sensitive trimester, maybe don't do it as much until 2nd tri?

    I had my nipple pierced after my first, didn't breast feed my second. I did have to take out my navel ring because it was way too itchy. I also have a hood piercing. I may just take them out of I need to, I am considering breastfeeding this one.

    It isn't recomended, but I don't think there have been any evidence that chemically treating your hair bothers the baby. But like nmason said, wait for your second trimester.

    I don't have nipple piercings (Owie) but I would probably just take them out now.

    As for bleaching your face, I wouldn't continue. I would go in and have your upper lip waxed! I personally do dermaplaning at home. I do my own face. Easier for me because I'm a toe head, but I think I would go for waxing.

    I'm wondering about my belly button piercing, personally... I'm glad other people think of this stuff early on!

    No idea about nipples but my belly button piercing was completely stretched out with my first. After the having the baby it went right back to normal, with the exception of having stretch marks shooting out from all around it. I think the piercing had scar tissue that did not stretch with the rest of the skin so I got a bunch on stretch marks. I could of put my jewelry back in after having my son but did not because I did not to call attention to the stretch marks. On the plus side the stretch marks are much lighter now. I think a good tan would hide them.

    CicchettiFamily I would go and get waxed, but I break out like craaaazy! Nothing sexier than little watery bubbly pimples above your top lip, lol. :/

    I have my belly button pierced as well, I didn't even really think about it. I know they make 'pregnancy belly rings' but I haven't seen/read any reviews on that yet. I should probably do some research before I waste my money. 
    Thanks again, love this board. (:
