Thoughts

Today is four weeks to the day since I had a needle and ring pushed through my penis. Yes, four weeks with the long thought about Prince Albert piercing.

Since Day 3, bleeding has been virtually non-existent and I have not had any major issues with the piercing at all.

I did have one bleeding event, and that was immediately after sex with the lovely Missus Sub on Mothers Day morning. Clearly it wasn’t as healed as I expected, maybe it was the smaller gauge ring being a little bitey. We won’t know the exact reason, but a few days of saline spray and gentle handling, and it was as good as it was leading up to the bedroom fun.

Pain has generally been non-existent as well, and other than a slight burning during urination, which doesn’t feel bad, but more about a slight back pressure from reduced flow area. I’m not too concerned about it given the sterile nature of urine actually having a cleansing effect on the piercing.

Now, the real question is how do I feel about it four weeks in?

Some people say that it is the best thing they have done and they don’t regret it. Well while I don’t regret getting it done, right now I’m feeling somewhat indifferent about it.

I’m not sure why I feel indifferent about it. Clearly I initially hyped it up, maybe I thought it would change my sex drive, maybe I’m actually just not that into it anymore. It could actually be something else.

So where to from here?

I still have a desire to increase the ring gauge to something larger than the 12G or 10G that I was pierced with. Right now, my thoughts are to reach a 4G or a 2G ring. I’m not really interested in anything larger, but that could always change once I get closer to a 2G ring or curved barbell.

Day 0 | Day 1 | Day 2 & 3

I’m continuing on my series of post about my Prince Albert piercing.

The second night

After the first evening, and the bleeding all day on Day 1, I was expecting another evening of blood and murder scene in the morning.

To my surprise, there was very little blood in the morning. A few small spots caught by the gauze, but nothing to be worried about like the previous day.

My day started with hope for minimal gauze throughout the day, if at all.

Day 2

Well after the overnight experience, I decided to run the gauntlet and go gauze free since were were home all day doing very little.

Got through most of the day blood free, although silly me was laying down and drifted off to dream land for just a few minutes, and what happens to guys during sleep? You know it, not quite the emissions from the previous morning, but a little wood, and extra blood meant the seal was popped. A quick clean up and saline soak, and back to running the gauntlet.

Not sure I’ll run the gauntlet for night number 3, but we shall see.

The third night

After the virtually blood free Day 2, I thought about going gauze free, but chose not to, didn’t want to run the risk of the first night all over again. But also guessed that there would be minimal blood based on the days experience.

Wrapped up the piercing, and slept through the night for a change. Much better than the previous week or so.

First thing in the morning, time for a check, and to my surprise very little blood at all. I think things have finally settled down now. Not sure I will give another night update here on the blog. Not unless something eventful happens due to the piercing.

Day 3

After minimal blood of the third night, I’m finally feeling comfortable to go without gauze during the day. Luckily it is still the long weekend here and if there is a problem, I’ve got the tools at hand for a quick clean up and wrap up to protect the clothing. After Day 4, I’m back into the real world, so depending how Day 4 goes, I may be back to wrapping when I return to work. But for now while I’m still at home, freedom reigns.

Future q&a?

I might do a future Q&A here on the blog in a few weeks once I have a few more weeks of being the proud owner of a Prince Albert. I would love to answer your questions, please leave your questions & comments on any of my Prince Albert posts and I’ll put something together.

Day 0 | Day 1

At the time of writing this post, I am 24 hours post piercing.

Here is my best attempt at a photo of the piercing. I posted it over on Twitter with another photo from the other side.

The piercing

After leaving work earlier than I normally would to make the trip down to see Mike from Infinity Piercing, I rocked up just as he was finishing serving up the previous customer. Being the day before a long weekend, I thought there may have been a queue of customers getting piercings done before the long weekend here in Australia, but apparently not.

While I filled in the consent form, Mike disappeared to setup the torture room (OK, maybe a slight exaggeration on my behalf). Once that was filled in, his assistant processed the payment, and I was soon led to the torture room.

Mike explained what he would be doing, and asked whether I had any questions. I was like nope, lets get this done before I back out. Mike continued the setup and let me know about the slight discomfort from the receiving tube being inserted. Once that was inserted and he stopped wriggling it around, it was about 2 minutes before he was telling me I could pull up my pants and sit up.

Was it in? Did he actually do it? I didn’t question him, nor ask for a pic. However, I knew it was in, I could feel the ring rubbing the insides of my glans.

With a few minutes explaining the aftercare and how to use the spray that I had purchased, he checked whether I was comfortable and in any pain, and no, no pain at all, but there was now adrenaline flowing through my veins.

My initial reaction

Wow! After leaving the Infinity Piercing studio, I headed back to the car, and posted reaction video and audio to a couple of people who knew I was getting the piercing. Just WOW!!

It was intense having done it after thinking about it for over 5 years, and I knew it was there even without seeing it there.

The first night

After a wash in the shower, photos for Missus Sub and our friend, and the post piercing drop, I wrapped up the tucker for a restful evening.

Of course sleep eluded me knowing what I had done earlier that day. My brain finally switched off and let me drift off to sleep, but do you think that last long? Nope. Just four short hours later the brain was awake, the body was awake, and the cock was awake.

After tossing and turning, hoping for more sleep, I took the quiet opportunity to inspect my new jewellery and have a clean up, I expected blood. The first inspection wasn’t too bad. So having cleaned up, saline spray, and bathroom break, back to bed to see what might happen.

Drifted off to sleep for about 30 minutes, and woke up to a warm sticky mess. I think I had a nocturnal emissions event and mixed with blood, it was a murder scene down there. After a morning shower to help clean up the murder scene and “blood slug”, and while I’m not squeamish about blood normally, this time I was triggered. Having cleaned up, and wrapped up again, the day started.

Day 1

After the morning shower, the family went about the day, obviously I am conscious about the piercing and any potential blood causing issues. Throughout the day I have been checking the piercing and its wrapping and doing my best to keep it clean.

Obviously a couple of times there was bleeding that required a dressing change and clean, and while I was there it was saline soak time. Trying to balance cups of saline water on a vanity while handling your “fragile” penis made for some challenges, but I’m still persevering with the piercing.

Onwards

So heading into the second evening, I’m hoping that the bleeding starts settling down going forward. Other accounts seemed to have minimal blood, but my experience seems to be otherwise. Clearly I’m the first blog account that has had a murder scene following a Prince Albert Piercing. Hopefully the second evening isn’t the same as the first.

Day 1 summary

• Do I regret getting a Prince Albert? Absolutely not!
• Is the piercing procedure painful? I’d say it is more uncomfortable than painful
• Do you notice the Prince Albert? I can always feel the ring’s presence
• How does your experience compare to other accounts? The other accounts that I have read have mentioned far less bleeding than my experience.

I’ll keep you posted on the progress of healing and other goodies.

Day 0

The nervousness is slowly building. The time is slowly approaching. It is only a few hours away now.

After delaying the much thought about Prince Albert piercing, I have confirmed that my chosen piercing studio is open this evening. I will be making the drive after work to get this piercing done and dusted, and allow the long weekend to rest & recover from the dreaded post-procedure pain & bleeding before returning to work.

Many people have written about their experiences with getting Prince Albert piercings and most seem to come across as harmless with minimal bleeding and fuss. However we always focus on the worst reports we see. (Bloody Reddit!)

I do not have intentions to pike out of it, but I know that I have pulled out of similar events before. People from Reddit believe in me, friends believe in me, and Mrs Wallace believes in me. Everyone has more faith in me than I have in myself.

But as I mentioned, I have had these thoughts on an off for around five years now and never once acted upon them. Now is the opportunity to go through with it and make these years long thoughts a reality.

Over the last few weeks, the idea of getting a Prince Albert piercing has been near the front of my mind. The idea of having a 10 gauge needle stuck through my body, and a ring slipped through after the needle, then left to hang off the body both excites and terrifies me.

My mind continually wanders between the excitement of doing something different for myself, something that some people see as taboo, and complete terror at having a complete stranger stick a needle through the skin of an intimate body part that few people have seen. However the idea that I have been having these thoughts for many years, without going away, means that the mind is really leaning towards getting the piercing.

The biggest issue that I am coming to terms with is how it will look. As an uncircumcised man, the piercing will not sit the same way as 99% of images on the internet portray the Prince Albert piercing. Most piercing websites, blogs, and Reddit have Prince Albert piercing pictures on circumcised penis’. A few pics appear for uncircumcised penis’ but it is hard to imagine how it will sit for me.

Apart from the appearance, some people report excessive bleeding in the 24 hours after the piercing, that also turns me off the idea. Many people say this excessive bleeding only happens in some circumstances, my mind always wanders to the worst case scenario for myself, and that will be excessive bleeding from the piercing site. While I am not afraid of blood, the idea of blood pouring out of my crotch does not appeal to me.

As of writing this blog post, I am ready to get the piercing, and I am also not ready to get the Prince Albert piercing. I feel that it is best to just go and get it done to put the idea to bed, but do I want a permanent hole in my body in my penis?

I think I need to just take the plunge, four years of thinking about it, and the idea of getting the piercing not going away, is clearly the universe telling me I need to do something about these thoughts.
