What kind of belly ring should I get first time?

The length of your first barbell will likely be 7/16-inch to allow for extra room for your piercings to heal and be easily cleaned. You can change the size later. (Belly button piercings almost always use 7/16-inch or 3/8-inch jewelry.)

You may be thinking about getting your belly button pierced but haven’t taken the plunge because you don’t know where to start. Here’s all the information you need to know so that you are well-informed and feel confident when you finally pierce your belly button.

You're Getting Your Navel Pierced, Here's What You Need To Know

1. Most belly button piercings are done with a curved barbell preferably made of 14k gold, 18k gold, or high-quality titanium. 2. The standard size for a navel piercing is 14 Gauge (aka 14G). You should never use a barbell thinner than 18G since a higher gauged needle presents more risk of rejection, tearing, and migration. 3. The length of your first barbell will likely be 7/16-inch to allow for extra room for your piercings to heal and be easily cleaned. You can change the size later. (Belly button piercings almost always use 7/16-inch or 3/8-inch jewelry.) 4. During healing, protect your navel piercing from being snagged on clothing, irritated from friction, or injured during physical sports and activities with this simple tip: get a vented eye patch of hard plastic (found at most pharmacies), and secure it over your piercing using an elastic bandage like an ankle wrap.

5. Follow a daily cleansing routine for you new navel piercing.

6. Don't change out your belly button ring until it has completely healed.

Your Piercing Is Healed. Time To Shop For A New Belly Ring!

You followed all the advice, and you’re completely healed. Now for the fun part: shopping for jewelry to adorn your awesome navel piercing! Remember when we talked about sexy body jewelry sizes? It’s still important. You want to look for 14G navel piercing jewelry with a barbell length of 3/8" (standard) or 7/16" (longer). Our belly button rings are made from solid 14k gold. Our gold is nickel-free, as nickel is generally the metal that people with metal allergies react to. The reason we choose gold, platinum, or titanium as our metals of preference for your belly piercing is that these materials are more pure and tend to have fewer additives that your body can react to. Cost considerations: if you want a healthy belly piercing and love the look of quality body jewelry, then you may want to invest in a gold belly button ring. Important: Be aware that even though you’re going to want to adorn your belly button with gorgeous, sparkly, dangle jewelry all the time, it’s best to wear basic jewelry for the majority of the time. This means that you should stick to simple, non-dangle curved barbells or CBRs (hoops) made of high quality titanium or gold with minimal adornment. Save your elaborate chandeliers and dangle belly button rings for day wear or special occasions. Whatever you do, don’t sleep in elaborate navel rings. This preserves your piercing, keeping it from getting irritated, and also keeps your jewelry in good shape. FreshTrends Tip New belly jewelry is so easily snagged. Make sure you wear clothing that won’t press or tug at the jewelry. If you’re concerned, you can cover the jewelry with a large bandage to avoid snagging during healing.

The average person passes gas 14 to 23 times a day. Knowing it’s healthy and normal doesn’t always keep it from being embarrassing. If you’re tired of silly jokes and occasional upset, a few simple tips may help you take charge of bloating and gassiness.

Watch What You Eat

The friendly bacteria in our guts help digest foods that our bodies have trouble breaking down. These bacteria also produce gas, usually as they digest food in the large intestines. Foods most often linked to intestinal gas include:

Beans and lentils

Asparagus, broccoli, Brussels sprouts, cabbage, and other vegetables

Fructose, a natural sugar found in artichokes, onions, pears, wheat, and some soft drinks

Lactose, the natural sugar found in milk

Fruits, oat bran, peas, and other foods high in soluble fiber, which gets digested in your large intestine

Corn, pasta, potatoes, and other foods rich in starch

Sorbitol, the artificial sweetener

Whole grains, such as brown rice, oatmeal, and whole wheat

That list covers a whole lot of healthy food, but you don’t have to severely restrict your diet. Most likely just a few give you gas. "Some people have problems digesting milk. Others don’t," says Lawrence R. Kosinski, MD, MBA, a spokesman for the American Gastroenterological Association. "And food sensitivities may change with age. Many people develop problems digesting milk products as they get older, for instance."

Two simple steps can help you discover your problem foods.
