As the mother of 3 girls 21, 19 and 16, let me just jump right in here. I

have been through all sorts of tattoos and piercings (NO TONGUES ON THREAT

OF REMOVING ALL FINANCIAL SUPPORT!!!) lol. Abbie at almost 16 got her belly

button pierced. It was allowed upon receiving permission from her rheumy.

Because she is on mtx and remicaide, it had to be done when her immune

system was at its highest. Dr. figured out when that was, and she did it

then. No problems with infection, and it has been almost a year now.

Hi Christy:

Your email reminded me of a dear friend who threatened her children (young

adults) with removal of financial support if they didn't clean up their

" filthy " rooms LOL. Caitlin would love a belly piercing. Does Abbie have her

ears

pierced? If so, did the belly piercing hurt more than the ears?

Take care.

Hi Patty,

Yes Abbie has several piercings. No greater amount of pain.
