i had my belly button pierced, and man alive, did it hurt! Now i can't sleep on my stomach or anything, and it's always getting caught on my clothes.i wish i'd never done it now. but if you really want to, look up some facts on google, then tell your mom so she'll think it's safe. but i wouldn't get my belly button pierced again if some one paid me. it hurt too much.

It really didnt hurt that bad i have two of them.To convince your mom just show her that you are responcable enough to deal with cleaning it every day and taking care of it.It takes alot of work for it not to get infected.

I would start by collecting fact-sheets about body piercing and navel rings in particular as well as information on piercing safety. I think once you read it with your mother and discuss her concerns that things will learn in your favor.

You cannot ever convince anyone of anything they themselves don't want to see or believe. All you can do is lay down the facts. Now that is something I can help you with!

Tell your mother all the positives/negatives of the piercing. Tell her exactly why you want it, what you'll do for it, & that you'll be responsible of caring for it once you get it. It sounds like having a puppy, but the responsibility is necessary nonetheless.

Pain varies from person to person. No one person will have the same amount of pain as you. What hurts for you could tickle for another person & vice versa. So, I can't tell you exactly how much it would hurt for you. I don't know how you stand pain, and you don't know how I stand pain.

As for the place you get it done at, make sure they're clean. If they don't open the needles in front of you, and the needles are already laid out when you go in the back to get pierced, leave. It'll seem rude, but chances are that those needles are dirty & you can get an infection. I've heard of people getting Hepatitis because the piercer/tattoo artist used old needles that he used on someone else. Make sure they open everything in front of you, and explain everything to you. Such as what they're gonna do, what they're gonna use, what to do while they pierce you, & how to clean/take care of it. You also might like to search different places & ask them their prices & then compare them so you know where to go. =) Good luck.

well, my mom likes peircings.. lol.. so it was no big deal with her. but if your in your teens, tell her that you think your old enough to have something like that. and you promise to take care of it. i got mine done for my 13th birthday. and im almost 16. and i have two of them top and bottom. it doesnt hurt, more like a bee sting to me. after it hurts more, but its nothing like omgosh im going to die. it just hurts to bend over. which you can go without for a day. ha..
