Hi everyone!
At A Glance Author B Contact B@bme.anon When It just happened Artist Stuart Studio Atlantean Connection Location Summerville, South Carolina Today was a day that I never thought would take place in my life! I took the plunge and had my nips pierced all for love. My hubby is an active duty military man, currently stationed quite far away, and what a surprise I have awaiting him! I have had piercings done in the past, my eyebrow, ear cartilage, etc...but this was the best experince I've had so far. I have several tattoos, have an open mind and am so excited and anxious to show them off.
My oldest daughter is an apprentice piercer at the shop I had my nips done at, and it was seeing hers, which she had done on her birthday as a gift to herself, that gave me the nerve to do mine. That and the fact that my husband has been begging me to do it. It's something about the knowing that it turns him on so much, that I myself have been walking around all week with a sly grin, just waiting for payday!
It wasn't so bad, really. My left breast has some scar tissue in the areole, from surgery two years ago, and I barely felt a thing. The right breast was much more sensitive, but once the needle went through, it was easy. The pain was just a flash.... YEOW! and it was done. I love the way they look and as long as I use my sea-salt soaks and take care of them, I hope to have them for years to come! It's been 10 months since I've bared my breasts for my husband, so I am really looking forward to the first time we are together again, and seeing his reaction.
If there is any doubt in your mind about having this done, just do it! It looks great, feels good and kick things up another notch (I hope). Who would have thought at 39, almost 40, I would have this done? Not me, but I did it and am so glad I did. I love it, my husband will love it, and the shock value is sooooo worth it! I just wish more people would do it, and then they would know what it's all about! I wish now that I had done it years ago, but good things come to those who wait, right?
Oh, the things we do for love....but somewhere deep inside I know I did it for me first, and everything else comes after. What people fail to understand is that ''normal'' is just a cycle on the washing machine, and piercing is just another form of self-expression, like tattoos, or like singing, or writing or whatever. Find a clean, sanitary, experienced piercer and go for broke. Body piercing has been around for hundreds of years, so why not get out there and go for it?
I do have to tell you that I was nervous, but by using deep breathing techniques and having something in my stomach, I was able to sit through the procedure and not feel faint or back out. I had read somewhere about making sure to remove your bra completely and am glad I am not too modest. Stuart was very professional, made me feel comfortable and did not make me feel self-concious at all. Just remember to relax, or try to, and sit back, relax and enjoy the ride. It's all worth it!
My husband and I both grew up in a very ''proper'' city and to do this is unthinkable. Well, he's planning on having his tongue and both of his nipples pierced when he comes back, and I am going to do my tongue, too. Whoever said life begins at forty was right! Having body jewellery makes me feel young, and even younger at heart. Why not experience all you can and make yourself more beautiful. I feel so much better about myself, and find it hard to believe that the breasts staring back at me in the mirror are mine. I figured that my breasts had served their purpose, so to speak. I nursed both of our daughters and never imagined I would see them as being any different. I am very much looking forward to the reunion with my husband for more than just the obvious reasons, and am glad I have about 8 weeks to help aid in the healing process before he comes back.
So, here is my story, I've shared some opinions and am glad to have a forum like this to let myself be heard. If you are reading this story to find out if nipple piercing is right for you, good luck! The hardest part of it all is the clamping, the rest is a breeze. Have fun, enjoy and smile. I wish I could wlak around without a shirt and bra in public and show them off!!! I love it and so will you!
