I had been debating for a long time if I had wanted to get this done or not since I thought it was going to be pretty painful, I mean come on that's a pretty tender area, that and I am a pretty big chicken when it comes to needles, which is why I still can't believe that I got them done. My husband had asked me awhile ago if I would go get it done and I was a little hesitant so I blew it off for a little while.

So after Christmas I finally decided to just stop thinking about it and have it done. So on Tuesday I decided to have them pierced so I called my sister to go with me since I was nervous about going and I wanted to have some kind of support there, so once I picked her up we were on our way to Hammers Tattoo that's where I had them done, I was scared even though I do have other piercing and tattoos but this is a pretty sensitive area.

So I was sitting there in the tattoo shop talking to my sister and waiting for the piercer to be done, and getting even more nervous which sucks when your scared. So once I finally got into the room I was still nervous I mean I had to take my shirt off in front of two men that I had just met, so I sucked it up and took my shirt and my bra off(which was still a little uncomfortable) then they made there markings once they were done with that I laid down and then they put the clamps on, which I think was more painful then the actual piercing.

I had them done at the same time, which I'm very glad I did that because I'm not going to lie it did hurt,(and I really don't think I would have gotten the second one done), but once the needles went through the pain only lasted for a few seconds, then they slid the rings in which pinched but wasn't really that bad and that was it there was still some pain but it wasn't that bad. One did hurt a little more than the other but I expected that it would. Lane was great they knew I was uncomfortable and nervous I'm not the type to just show my boobs to anyone.

I do have to say that my having my eye brow pierced hurt a little more than my nipples. Once it was all done and over with it there was some pain but that not much there still sore since I just had them done on Tuesday, I didn't want to look at them until I got home my husband wasn't there yet but I did have other friends there, On the way home I hit some railroad tracks and that made them hurt but other than that there was no pain.

They also sting a little when I get cold but I do love them though and I had to do it over again I would, even though it was pretty painful I still love them and can't wait until they heal. They were a surprise to my husband. Cleaning them hurts a little but its not so bad. It will be nice when they actually heal I have been using sea salt twice a day which helps when they feel sore, I do have a hard time cleaning them when I'm not in the shower it's a lot easier to do in the shower then if I was to just clean them in the bathroom sink.

Even though its only been a few days since I have had them done I really don't notice that there even there until I get cold of course or have them bumped. I have found that wearing a sports bra works great at night it keeps them in place while I'm asleep, I was afraid that they would snag or get stuck while I was sleeping, I also have kids so I was afraid they would hurt when I picked them up. There still a little sore when someone hugs or bumps me so I do try to wear of a sports bra when I know I'm going out. I think once they heal I'll love them a lot more. I still can not believe that I had them pierced, it all went by pretty fast and I don't have much to tell since I just had them done but I do love them already. Now that I have them done I'm more confident about myself and now I can't wait to show them off. Only a few people have seen them(so far). I would recommend getting them done though I have a friend who is also going to get them done since I have gotten mine.
