Well look's like someone wants to be sneekie? Anyway's I don't mind answering your question. When I was 12 my best friend really really wanted her belly button pierced and I had to be the victom of piercing it. I was really scared at first but I did'nt want to do somthing wrong. So I had to consentrate. I took a large safty pin and put it over a flame (she lit a candle) I then put alot of ice on your belly botton to numbed it and take the feeling away. She did'nt want her mom to know about it at all. I took the safty pin and pierced your belly botton it bleed alot but she said it really did'nt hurt at all. Well If you don't want to use a safty pin you can use a large sewing needle. You can get them at any arts and crafts place or sewing places mostly Joanns Fabrics go on line to find addresses in your area. My friend is now 15 her mom found out when she was 14 at her swimming birthday party. Her mom was really up-set but she never mentioned to her mom that I did it to her. She lives in New York with her dad her mom said she did'nt want a loose slut around her. Well i hope I gave you some info you were looking for. also I hope you know what your doing.Also I forgot if you know somone that could help you that best and if you want the latest little cute belly button rings you could ask someone to get them for you just give them the money.

Get it done professionally. If you do it yourself it could cause a lot more problems. Think if it gets really infected then you'll have to tell your mom. Or what if you do it crooked and then all your friends will laugh at you. It's just generally dangerous and not something to do at home. Your honestly better off bugging your mom until she caves in and lets you. But if you just can't wait (patients is a virtrue.) at least go buy some piercing wash and other sorts of cleaners to keep it clean. You can get a hollow needle at an agricultural or animal store.(probably not petco though.) Some where that sells stuff for cows and horses. Just get a syringe needle from them, if they will even sell it to you. Don't use a safety pin or sewing needle either. That just tears the skin and then you have to force the jewlery in causing more damage. Get a hollow needle the same gauge as the jewelry you will use.
When you go home or wherever to do this make sure you clean everything. This is a must. Clean the needle, clean the jewelry, clean your skin, and anything else to be used. Including your hands.
Read down this site too. http://www.ladygodivas.ca/Naval%20aftercare%20body_pierce_canada.htm Oh and be warned it could migrate and be rejected by the skin.

Please do not pierce your belly button yourself. I made the mistake of piercing my own belly button when I was 15 and despite being very careful and keeping it clean, it still became infected and now I have scars where it was. No matter where you get it done, belly button piercings are at high risk for infections because of all the moving and clothing rubbing against it. If you need your moms permission to get it done professionally then you should talk to her, and if she says no then wait. Doing it yourself will just leave you with scars and something you regret. It is also difficult to re-pierce through scar tissue so you might have a hard time getting it professionally done later on if you do it yourself now.

Uhhh, are you crazy. First off you might not do it straight and you will have a crooked piercing. You best bet is to let a pro do it. You stand the risk of infection which could lead to you being ill. You should let someone do it for you. What happens if it get infected and the doctor has to end up lancing or cutting your skin. Then you will be scarred around your belly button and it will look gross in you bikini. Some people are more prone to getting infections, so be careful when sticking anything through the body.

Don't do it yourself. It will hurt so much more. Have you ever had a plaster on a hairy bit of skin? I hate pulling them off myself, as I know the pain is coming, so my body makes the pain feel worse. If I can, I get a mate to do it, quickly. It's hardly noticeable, as you aren't expecting it.
Piercing yourself is going to be ten times worse than that!!!
Besides, as you're not a professional, you'll do it wonky, and it will probably get infected (Imagine puss filled spots down there...)
Wait until you move out. Then your mum has no power over those decisions after that.

YOU ARE A TOTAL AND UTTER IDIOT!
Professionals aren't just people who put needles into the skin but know about positions of muscle, nerves and blood vessels to avoid scaring, damage and death – yes you can easily kill yourself doing a piercing yourself (through body shock or infections). They know all about blood pathology and what to do if something goes wrong, you do not. The equipment is sterilized and the studio is as clean as a hospital room because it needs to be, you would not perform your own surgery so why do you think doing your own piercing is any different?
...and a sewing needle!!!???
I really hope this is a joke because if not it saddens me that people are so stupid, even if you are a little kid that's no excuse for being so idiotic.

Piercing your belly button could easily be infectious. Using the wrong type of needle or not knowing how you are supposed to pierce it can result in pussing, bleeding, it becoming swollen, and having a painful healing process. I DO NOT recommend doing it yourself.

You Don't do it yourself. of all the piercings, Tongue and Belly should NOT be done by yourself. it you mess it up you can damage nerves and cause a lot of other problems. even incontenance, since belly button nerves are tied to genitals. You should really really see a professional, and no, not all of them require parental consent.

Don't do it...it will get really infected. I know someone who did it themselves because they didn't want their mom to know and they had to get surgery on their belly button because it got so infected. You are risking so much just for a little piercing...wait and ask your mom. Trust me.
