Mik, let's all talk here about the sex you and your wife have. Then again, perhaps that's too personal to bring up. It would probably be rude of me. |

Because people vary. Do what makes YOU happy. What others think does not matter. |

mmm... I had mine done before the kids and took it out during the first month or so. THe polite description John came up with after #1 was "Wow! that's a train wreck isn't it?" Let's just say the scar didn't stretch in quite the same way as the rest. It's fine now (except that I have more of an outie than an innie ) and I'd be half inclined to do it again (except that John was never really that keen), but it's taken 3 years.I voted have the kids and then do it, at least that way you know what shape you'll be more or less. |

No offense meant Kenny. Just in response to your comment about risk of infection. |

Well, I would take the ring out the moment I found out I was pregnant, and when I was pregnant before with Luke, nothing changed about my belly button. |

Mik I will not even bring up the sexually transmitted diseases that you you could get from your wife because I have too much class. So I won't even mention it. In fact it would not even occur to me. |

Well perhaps there was a better way to phrase that one. Like 'I bet Kenny was an early adopter of safer sex practices.' Again, I meant no offense to you or Jose. |

conservative crowd, maybe. i would never get a piercing or a tattoo. i think they detract from the beauty of the human body, and i also don't understand the psychology of wanting to have those things done. but that's me. |

Do you assume apple, Dewey or Ivorythumper practice only safer sex? I can't imagine you asking whether they practice safer sex. |

I voted Yes, now. You've obviously had one before, so know how to look after it, and know what you are doing. And if you're feeling good about the state of your belly button, and it's surrounding area right now, go for it! |

Haven't the slightest idea whether they do or not. But I did when I was single and would if I became single again. And I might well have made that joke about anyone if they posted a caution like you did regarding the slightest chance of infection. I get the impression you feel I picked on you this way because you are gay, and that is, to the best of my knowledge, untrue. |

Thanks. Sue. Brad said he is cool with it so I'll probably get it done soon.

I voted no because I don't like them. You asked, I answered. If you didn't want opinions (and that's what it is), then don't ask. :rolleyes: Big Al |

I wanted opinions, just ones that verified what I wanted to do. Plus, it gives me more to think about before I actually get it done. |

I'm with Al - but you are a big girl now and can do what you like. For what it is worth, I do think a belly button ring is more attractive than a |

:lol: :lol: Obviously, I want the piercing. I wanted the poll because I'm sure there would be nos and it would give me an opportunity to hear logical reasons (if explained) why I shouldn't and could consider them. The only logical one was possible infection. I've had a belly button ring and it was healthy. The other concern was getting one now or after I have more kids. What Dol said made sense because I want one and the expense is minimal. I am not Crash!!!! |

Don't you read his "Big Mik" blog? |

Civilisation, I vaguely realized then - and subsequent observation has confirmed the view - could not progress that way. It must have a greater guiding principle to survive. To treat it as a carcase off which each man tears as much as he can for himself, is to stand convicted a brute, fit for nothing better than a jungle existence, which is a death-struggle, leading nowhither. I did not believe that was the human destiny, for Man individually was sane and reasonable, only collectively a fool. I hope the gunner of that Hun two-seater shot him clean, bullet to heart, and that his plane, on fire, fell like a meteor through the sky he loved. Since he had to end, I hope he ended so. But, oh, the waste! The loss! - Cecil Lewis | |

No, if you were Crash, it would have went something like this: M&Ms: I want to get my belly button pierced, but last time it got horrifically infected and LD hated it. The place I want to go to is disgustingly filthy and are in the process of being shut down due to health violations - I need to get in under the wire. Oh, and I'm pregnant, so I'm pretty sure I'll have to take it out in a couple months. Should I get one? 47 peoples responses: No, you shouldn't get one. It sounds dangerous, it's not the right time, and if LD hated it, maybe that's a concern as well. M&Ms: I got my belly button pierced! It's oozing puss everywhere and hurts terribly. The doctor says that I'm getting gangrene. Should I take it out? 68 peoples responses: Yes, we told you so. M&Ms: I just got home from the hospital because I ended up getting some bizarre infection from the rusted needle the piercer guy used. I had to take the piercing out, but I'm going back tomorrow cause he said he'll replace it for free!
