i FINALLY GOT MY EARS PIERCED!!! YAY!!! i have had them for about 6 weeks. it has been quite an expierence though!!! i had them for a few days and my ears got REALLY SWOLEN (later they oozzed puss )i went back to claires (where i got them pierced) and i had to get them re-pierced with long posts. to this day they are still swolen (but not red or infeted) at least they have more room so they're not tight because of the long posts! anyway i'm going to change them at 8 weeks. i can't wait!!!
