wait as long as it takes to look not crusty or mushy or gross. i waited a good 6 months before i even bothered. it's more important to take care of that piercing than to show it off. and think of it this way: if you let it get infected because you were too excited, you will probably have to let it close. and once you let it close, you can't pierce that spot again because of scar tissue (well, you can, but it will hurrrttttt!) so take care of it and be patient! :)

I waited about 3 months but freaked out a little bit putting the new one in so make sure someone else is around for when you do change it because you may not be able to stomach it. As for yourself everyone heals differently if you have no crust and it doesnt hurt just make sure you clean it really well. and dont change it before 6 weeks.

definetely wait 6 months. i took mine out and i couldnt get it back in because it made me so nervous becuase i didnt' know if i was doing it right. but yeah wait 6 months, you'd rather it be healthy and have no infections rather then having to get it repierced or having infections in your belly button.

I changed my at around 3 months. It did irritate it though, so I'd definitely watch it and keep it clean when you do!!
