Well, Raelyn told me I have "major-league nipples" (attested to by
all my SOs as well), and I have had no untoward problems with my
piercings.  It took about 10 weeks for them to heal to the point
where play wasn't a problem, although we're still fairly careful
with them, even 6 months later.

I did *not* go braless during the healing period; instead, I used a
donut of tissue to keep the bra from pressing against the nipple
itself while the flesh was tender.  The major difficulty with
pressure on the nipples was that they were unused to the pressure of
the ring inside, and any torque on the rings caused discomfort.  Now,
of course, the nipples seem to have lengthened to the point where the
ring hangs straight down instead of sticking out (unless they're
stimulated and erect, of course).

To my knowledge, my experience was consistent with others with
similar gauge piercings and much smaller nipples.

  I was riding the train the other day when the conductor, noticing my
lip ring, commented that the other day he had seen someone with a ring
through the eyelid.  "Eyebrow," I said, "right?"  But he seemed adamant
that it had indeed pierced the eyelid.  I found this hard to believe but
I suppose that I really ought to ask the assembled masses:  ever heard
of an eyelid piercing?

The guy who did mine said that I had the smallest urethral aperture he had
ever seen (it was kinda cold that day!).  But did the peirce no problem, he
did use the inside out technique rather that the urethra tube method, but
just his preferred approach.  I've got an 8ga in there now and there's ton's

Firstly, I don't usually hide the fact that I have BodMods, unless it is

them, and what I have to a degree (they tend not to dwell on the technical

"Does your mother approve?" My mother don't know..hehe

I have one female aquantence that always grabs my chest, where my nipple
ring is, and asks if I still have it...touchy-feelies!!!!! Definite Ice Breaker!

I don't have an amp, nor any friends with ampallang's(that I know about),
sorry..If it's worth anything, I've read/heard that they are one of the
longer-healing pierces and susceptable to some problems...possibly the FAQ
or a talk with a good piercer could answer your questions.

  Re: reactions, I've never been accosted by someone simply to berate me
or attack me, which is to say all the responses I've gotten are along
the lines of: "Hey, cool!"  I sometimes wish that my _non_-visible
piercings could somehow be seen, but not really, I guess.  Hmmm... I
guess you can always bring them up yourself.

  I have an ampallang, done by Scott at Gauntlet SF, and I think that
while this is _unquestionably_ a piercing that should be done by a
professional, there is really no danger if a pro does it.  When I called
for an appointment for the ampallang, the receptionist was very blase
about the choice of piercing, and I was told that they did these every
week or so.  Clearly massive hemorrhaging was not a frequent occurrence
(no pools of blood on the floor, anyway :)).

I'm a 36DD and after getting my nipples pierced, my body literally spat
them out. I think they lasted about 3 months by which time one had about 3 mm
of flesh between it and the 'real world'. Also, they've never truely healed 
even after 3-4 years (or is it 5 now, I forget). Now, my nipples are flat
and I'm sensitive to metals.

On the other hand, my 3 month old inner labia piercings are doing great.
I had Titanium rather than stainless or gold so I think that helped.

I've decided "If it doesn't stick out, Don't pierce it"

Oops, sorry, lost the attribution. Well, anyway, I only know one person
who was in this situation, and she took her ring out at about the 3rd
month, she could have left it in til probably about the 5th, but at that
point it definitely would have had to be removed. Now she just has a
little scar, but she's going to have it repierced as soon as she stops
breast feeding. She had had it pierced for about a year, maybe 18 mos.
before she took it out, so maybe if she'd had it longer it wouldn't have
closed up.

In answer to the question about our bleeding experiences:

I normally don't bleed that much, but when I got my PA I had ridden
my motorcycle, in the rain, in winter, to get pierced.  I was probably
heading toward a mild case of hypothermia, which would make it hard for
*my* body to stop bleeding(too warm blooded).

I also went to a party that night( yeah, I know...dumb) which may have
aggravated the wound.  I woke up the next day with blood on the sheets,
etc.  It wasn't *gallons*, just some good sized patches...I had probably
rustled around in my sleep and did something nasty!!
I'm sure the alcohol  in my system, minute amount that it was =;>, didn't
help either...

 Yeah, that was one of my favorite replies to people asking about my
tragus piercing. I grew tired of it, though, (since you get the same
damn question several times a week). I now reply (depending on the
situation, of course :), "Not as much as my nipple piercing".

 My favorite incident was at a party a few months back, where this
girl kept staring at my tragus piercing. She kept telling me "I can't
believe it, why did you put a ring there, didn't it hurt". (She had a
nose piercing herself, so I was a bit surprised over her reaction).
After a few hours I grew tired of the never ending questions, so I
gently took her hand and guided it under my t-shirt, to touch my
pierced nipple...! That shut her up for a few minutes - actually she
left for quite a while to 'think it over'! Then she came back to me,
and that started quite a nice, steamy relationship, which lasted a few
months!

I have anodized titanium rings in my recent ear pierces, and
both of them have become somewhat infected-seeming (some pus).
This did not occur when I had steel in them, and I was wondering
if this indicates a metal allergy, or whether they just became

What are the symptoms of a metal allergy in a pierce?

You're not going to like this.  I know, I certainly didn't!

I have small nipples so when I went to get my nipple pierced
the piercer almost refused to do it for me.  She refused to
pierce behind my nipple and said anything bigger than 14 gauge
would be too big.

I finally talked her into doing it.  She marked my nipple,
sterilized the area then put the clamps on.  She pushed the
needle through without any problems.  After she got the
needle half way through, she stopped and got the ring ready
to insert.  She tried to push the ring in behind the needle
but she ended up pushing the needle out without getting the
ring in.

I told her to try again so she pushed the needle through and
tried again.  By now the pain was beginning to become unbearable.
She failed at the second attempt and I told her to try again.

Before she put the needle in the last time, I told her to
finish it even if I passed out!  She put the needle in, again,
and managed to get the end of the ring inside my nipple.  I
told her to push it through and not to stop!  She did.  I
opened my eyes and saw nothing but white.  I think I was about
to pass out.

The third time was a charm.  After about fifteen minutes of
intense pain and three piercing, I finally had a 14 gauge
ring through my poor little nipple.  ;-)

Two weeks later, I took a BIG chance and replaced the 14 gauge
ring with a 12 gauge one.  It wouldn't just slide through.  I
had to push hard before it finally popped through the other
side.  It's healing nicely.

I believe most piercers like to go behind the nipple because
it's easier.  I don't like the way that looks, though.  My
recommendation is to use a needle one size larger that your
jewelry.  That worked well for my friend who had his pierced
right after me.

My tattoo nightmare is that I am in this dark place getting a tattoo from this
huge, fat guy (certainly not my usual tattooists! ...:-) ), when somebody else
comes in and the tattooist gets distracted and continues to draw on me while he
is not watching what he is doing, and of course, everthing is going to shit 
but he doesn'  stop and I can't pull away. In the middle of making a complete
mess of the tattoo, he starts doing some tat on the other person with the other
hand and things just keep getting worse ... then I wake up ... generally in a
cold sweat ... :-)

Another variation of this is ... I go in to get a tat (different dream 
tattooist) and the guy gets part way through the outline and then starts
working on somebody else. I am sitting there bleeding like a stuck pig
(which I don't do when I really get tattoo work done) with part of a 
tat done and I *know* he is not going to finish it.

Now for the bad news ... :-( ... The "I-forgot-I'm-registered-in-a-class-
and-it's-the-final-exam" dream will most likely stay with you the rest of 
your life ... at least in my experience. I still have them regularly and 
I have been out of school for a *LOT* of years. They have never gone away ...
