I just had mine done yesterday, and they haven't put in the barbell yet. But when I cleaned it yesterday it stung a tad bit, not much, barely infact, and today it doesn't hurt at all.
On the paper they piercer gave me it said if it stings it means its cleaning ..? I'm taking a Q tip, and cleaning around the holes with Spectro Jel, and then I turn it so it gets in. Is this wrong to do?

yeah thats fine. keep in mind that it might start pussing a little bit and be kinda sore, but that doesnt necisarrily mean its infected. white puss is just white blood cells healing the area.
all you really need to do is take a cotton ball and dab on some hydrogen peroxide. there really is no "right" way to clean an area, some people will tell you that way is wrong, but people do it that way all the time.
as long as you are cleaning it when you shower, and making sure you disinfect it once a day, you should be fine!

I'm confused by the part that you said they haven't put the barbell in yet...does that mean they pierced your belly and didn't insert the piercing, just put a hole? Anyways...assuming you meant something else and you do indeed have a piece of jewelry in there you are doing the right thing, everyone heals differently, when I had mine done it hardly hurt at all too, just keep cleaning it like you are and continue to move your belly ring around to keep it from getting crusty (gross word I know) and it should heal good for you.

You are cleaning it properly...It will take several weeks for the piercing to heal.
