belly button piercing

Has anyone had a belly button piercing and got little red marks around the hole?? Do those fade pretty easily?

I've had mine pierced for over a year and it just looks like a stretch mark

Mines been done almost 2 years and I started to get the "red mark" in between the 2 holes it started to look pretty bad I almost took it out but decided to wait and now I'm 35 weeks and it has already faded a lot. So I'm hoping it will go away completely after birth. It's barley noticible now like I'm the only one that actually really notices it.

I don't know if it fades. I had had mine out for about a year and since i got mine so long ago I still have the hole, well when i got pregnant last year it started getting really red as it stretched, my daughter is now 8 months old and it's still a bit red around the hole. I'm pregnant again but still early so it will happen to me again with time probably.

I have it right now!  I actually got mine pierced in January 2015.  I had no idea I was pregnant at the time.  Until a good week after I got it done.  Once I hit 20 weeks I had to take it out because my belly button was stretching and thining out  too much.  I now have a tip of the pinky size red scar around the top part of the naval hole.  I'm now 26 + 3 and it's still not fading.
