    I don't know how to post a pic, but I had a few kids and I got my naval pierced at 33 y/o. Still working on toning my abs but it doesn't look bad and I am now 44 and would do it over again! :)

    Go for it!!
    Sorry, I won't post a pic, as modesty is a big thing for me (showing myself in a tank top is as far as I go! Lol) but I also have one, am 33 and had a csection!! My husband likes it and he's the only one opinion I care about anyway. So go for it! You look great!!! You should do it :-)

    I have one but I've had it since I was 16, I'm now almost 33 and with 3 kids I still have it in but I never show it off, the reason I still have it is because I like it and I don't like my belly button, do things in life because you want to not because others want you to, I say go for it xx

    I am just curious- I've never had one - so did you have to take it out when your belly started getting big or did your stomach just adapt with it in?? I know I didn't have much skin to spare towards the 8th month lol

    I got mine when I was 22 and had kids at 29 and 30 y/o. I left the piercing in throughout both pregnancies (i.e. delivered with piercing LOL). They make flexible ones (teflon) and those are longer too. So that's what I wore the last month of my pregnancies :)

    Still wear it, I love it :)

    OP, just think of this as another victory for your journey. So go for it.


    Everyone else, lets play nice... I don't need more work... there really is no need to violate the below two rules:

    1. No Attacks or Insults and No Reciprocation

    a) Do not attack, mock, or otherwise insult others. You can respectfully disagree with the message or topic, but you cannot attack the messenger. This includes attacks against the user’s spelling or command of written English, or belittling a user for posting a duplicate topic.
    b) If you are attacked by another user, and you reciprocate, you will also be subject to the same consequences. Defending yourself or a friend is not an excuse! Do not take matters into your own hands – instead, use the Report Post link to report an attack and we will be happy to handle the situation for you.

    2. No Hi-Jacking, Trolling, or Flame-baiting

    Please stay on-topic in an existing thread, and post new threads in the appropriate forum. Taking a thread off-topic is considered hi-jacking. Please either contribute politely and constructively to a topic, or move on without posting. This includes posts that encourage the drama in a topic to escalate, or posts intended to incite an uproar from the community.

    <-- mine's in - don't know if you can see it in the pic. I've had it for 15 years, and when I got it my skin was pretty stretched and I still had a pooch belly. and I loved having it and I do still. go for it, if you want it!

    I have one. Usually wear chandeliers, sometimes even a chain :)
  • If you have the stomach for it go for it! I personally love them and I am 35.

    I have one. I've had it since I was 18. I took it out during my pregnancies (3 of them) and put it back in after. It didn't close up. It's very small though, just a little purple barbell. You can't even see it in any of my profile pictures.

    I got mine when I was about 22 for my husband's birthday (he likes them). I took it out a couple years ago when I was pregnant but put it in a few times just to see if it closed. I haven't put it back in, mainly because I forget. My stomach is not flat anymore, but I don't like my belly button anymore after having a few surgeries for endometriosis so I will probably put it back in.

    Besides, who really cares what others think? Besides yourself and maybe your significant other, it doesn't matter.
