I got my navel done when i was 15. I was very nervous because I went to a shop to get it done and I have always done my own piercings because the thought of strngers pircing me scares me. But I got the guts and laid on the table. It didnt hurt and the guy did a great job. The only bad part was sleeping because I sleep on my belly, but after a week or so I could sleep on it again. It has never gotten infected or anything and healed great.

I got my navel pierced 8 months ago to this day, and I absolutely love it! I have never had any problems with it, and it didn't even hurt when I got it pierced. I went with my friend who was getting a tattoo that day, and decided that I wanted another piercing, and a navel piercing sounded like a great idea. My friend told me she heard a pop when the needle went through the upper part of the piercing, but luckily I didn't hear that or else I probably woulda been freaked out.

last night, i went to a local place, that is certified by the state health department. so i went with my mom, and boyfriend, and my dad showed up too. so the peircer looked at my belly button and had us fill out all the paperwork and pick out a ring.

I've wanted a navel piercing for a while. For 2 reasons: 1) they are just so sexy looking and 2) it would negate the fact that I was getting older! Well, I finally got it... one week before I turned 50! Okay all, before you moan and groan let me say that I don't look my age, and I'm in really good shape. My oldest son came with me as my support system. Let's talk about a bonding experience... When it was done he says ' damn Mom, what a trooper. You didn't even flinch.' Both my boys (19 and 20 yrs old) thought it was very cool that I got it, and my husband thinks it looks great!

I decided to get my navel pierced. I'd never gotten anything other than my ear lobes pierced, so I was clueless. I knew where there was a long standing tattoo shop, so I went there. I requested a piercing, and one of the tattoo artists told me he would do it when he finished with the tattoo client he was working on. I sat and waited. He called me back, had me fill out paperwork, asked if I wanted a barbell or CBR. I chose a curved barbell with jeweled ends. He marked the spot while I was standing and asked if it was o.k. Looked o.k. to me.

I have always had a flat stomach and sort of a six pack since I was a tomboy as a kid. I've had numerous laparoscopies for endometriosis. So I had a little scar that was a perfect edge for a piercing so everyone thought. I finally got the nerve up, walked into a piercing shop in Las Vegas and they said let me see your naval. I lifted up my shirt and they said they couldn't pierce me because I had the wrong kind of belly. I hadn't heard of such a thing. Two other piercers told me the same thing during the next six months. So I ended up piercing my hood instead.

Today I got my navel pierced at Forever Sacred in Centerville, IA by Cynthia who rocks!

After going through the process of paperwork, signatures, and proof of ID I was ready to go back and get pierced!

I admittedly have been on the fence about getting a navel piercing, because I'm not the typical body-shape for it, but after some gentle coaxing, and some help from friends, I decided to get it done, for me. I pretty much say "it's now or never" and I decided it was now!

i got my belly button pierced at 11 from my dad my mom was so agianst it thats the main reason i wanted it lol so my dad took me and my older sister who was 13 at the time.

Now, to start off with I think it is important I explain how I grew up. My father is Jewish, my mother is Catholic, and my household has always been very . . . eclectic religion-wise. But I had a Bat Mitzvah, went to hebrew sunday school for a few years, yadda yadda ANYWAY. I had always been told I could not, under any circumstances, get any piercings other than in my earlobes or any tattoos - otherwise I would never be allowed to be buried in a Jewish cemetery if I should someday choose to be.

OMG so I did this navel piercing on Jessica and I want it so bad now!!
Its off centered on purpose, to give it a different look.
wasnt hard to do either
