    For the first few days... mine would have been about a 7. But, it goes away after a few days. However, it could take up to 1.5 years to fully heal.

    It all depends on your tolerance for pain. What may hurt you may not hurt another person, so you will never get an answer that is accurate for you. The only thing I could warn you of, is even if the piercing itself doesn't hurt, it is going to be swollen and tender for a little while. If you can handle that, then I say go for it. :)

    Yeah, I don't think that your belly button swells after getting peirced unless its infected:S:S
    Mine never did and I've had it multiple times

    Under normal circumstances, it will swell a little. Any wound you cause to your body will swell, that's your body's natural reaction.

    10 I don't have one but from seeing and hearing it hurts badly. And I will not advice you to have one because you are still a baby and it does swell if you have sensitive skin, you all people are crazy. I go against those things and I guest your mother don't care about you because if she did she wouldn't have tel you yes in the first place so don't do it

    So because we get piercings, our mothers don't care about us? Lol.. get a grip. Piercing is a form of expression, if you don't like it, don't do it.

    I got my belly button and my nose pierced when I was 17. The belly button ring hurted it was like a painful needle with a hook jolted through my skin the nose ring was like a pinch it made me shed a tear but it was not as bad. I am now 22 yrs old and I wish I had never gotten my belly button pierced because it was left crooked and it immediately had got infected at work it was getting caught on the bag rack and it was pulling it and would stretch it causing it to bleed my pants would rub up against irritating it and now I just have the hole because it never closed. So if your are going to get your belly button pierced take really good care of it and make sure that's something you would want to have later good luck
