One of my friends totally shocked me
this week by going to get her nipples pierced! She isn't some
hardcore body modification nut, she only has her ears pierced and she
has never even expressed even the remotest interest in nipple
piercing or any other piercing. In fact the odd time the topic has
come up she seems to be a bit uncomfortable or grossed out, so it was
definitely something of a shock when she came over all excited and
whipped open her shirt to show me!!
Nipple piercing isn't something I have
considered myself, despite my other body piercings, so I was really
interested in how it went. She told me that as long ass there are no
complications they would heal up in 2 to 4 months. That seems like a
really long time, but I guess it isn't really. The piercer did warn
that some people find it is about 18 months before they heal
properly.
The piercer did mention something
interesting to her afterwards. I guess they were talking about if
they had kids and stuff and my friend said no but she would like
some in future. The piercer suddenly said, “well you can still
breastfeed.” She thought it strange at the time, but talking about
it we agreed that it is actually something you probably never think
about when getting a nipple piercing, but once we did we kind of
leaned towards thinking you wouldn't be able to! So we looked up some
information and so long as it's done properly and the milk ducts are
not damaged you can easily breast feed although you do need to take
the jewellery out obviously.
