I just HAD to go looking for this topic! After talking about it all summer, I FINALLY got my belly button pierced today!! With a week and a half left before I leave for college. I was at a friend's house and we were talking about it, and it was so spontaneous and random! We just decided to jump in the car and go get ours done. The actual piercing didn't hurt, but all day long I've been sore. I read that post where it said healing takes 4 weeks to a year... I'm gonna try and take some super care of mine because I want it to be minimal. I love it though... I think it's so cute!

Oh, btw, I also have my ears pierced once each, but they've been done since I was a little baby so I've always kinda taken them for granted.
Hey Orchid,
I'm glad you got your belly button pierced. Mine is doing better...I'm actually thinking about changing it now. Every now and then I have a few small problems where it grows shut over the ring and it hurts to move it, but otherwise I hardly remember that it is there.
It did take mine a good month to heal. At least to the point where I could touch it and sleep on it. The best advice I got was to clean it with salene solution three times a day. I tried everything but that seemed to work well.
Have fun at school and keep us posted on your ring.
Hootie
