It usually takes 6-8weeks and it will have no scabs and won't bleed, also you should be able to twist it all the way around without any pain.

when there is no crust / white blood cells around the area any more and you can change the jewelry without it hurting .. it should be 2 -6 weeks after its been pierced

Contrary to popular misbelief it takes up to a year for a navel piercing to fully heal and be considered a seasoned piercing. The body is forming skin and this doesn't happen over 2 to 6 weeks but over 3 to 6 months. Jewellery changes should be avoided until you reach the 3 month period and the piercing has had a chance to really settle in without redness and discharge, everyone heals at various rates, so don't rush the changing.

Well the piercing needs to heal, this can take up to a year for a piercing to become seasoned (this is when you can remove the jewellery for a few hours and not have an issue putting it back in).

Average heal time can vary from piercing to piercing from 4~6 months for some and others a lot longer. Light heals are not considered "healed" and can be damaged by removing the jewellery too soon.

When the discharge eases and the piercing starts to become more comfortable then these should be signs that the piercing is healing up nicely.

What is some basic information about belly button piercing?

A belly button piercing can be a lot of fun, but it must be kept absolutely clean. It is a piercing that is easily infected, and when it does get infected, it's pretty bad. After getting pierced, clean the area twice a day (as well as after the shower, after swimming in the beach, etc). Also know that after the belly button ring is removed, there will be a small scar that can stretch (permanently) during pregnancy.

Yes, you can change your piercing after 6 months, as long as you know your piercing is healed, and it doesn't seem infected. you can safely change the piercing after 6-8 weeks.
