This is going to be used as my personal timeline to help me track my ear stretching process (=

My original 20/18g piercing

16g with CBR
(It's a little red because it took me about 10 minutes to get the bead to snap in :? )

14g with skull horseshoe

great start ! when you go to 14 ,12 ,and 10 try a horse shoe bar the kind with 2 balls they are way easier to screw on then the one bead snap in kind .. at about 8ga plugs get alot easier to put in .. I wore horseshoe bars up till 8 ga

Thanks guys! Yeah, when I went to try to find some 14g.s I thought to myself 'CBRs again?...I think not' lol so with ViolentJayne's advice I got some that were a bit easier to put in, and I'm really happy withthe result (update oftimeline above). I'm thinking of going with pinchers or tapered crescents for 12-8g because at 14g they're threatening to succumb to catbutt effect :shock: So, I'll probably be trying Vit. E or jojoba massages for a couple weeks and see how they fare after that...

Oh, btw guys, do my piercings seem too close to my head? I have attached lobes and I had them done at CLaire's awhile back and it wouldn't surprise me if they messed them up =P

the seem fine . in fact i hear that with attached lobes its better to get them pierced kinda close to the head anyway that way you start out with more tissue on the outer lobe .. so its actually probably a good spot

You might run into problems with them being close to your head eventually, but I reckon it'd be fine :) More tissue is always good!
Whats your goal size?

I had attached lobes, and I think if I went much larger they'd start to look a bit ..hammocky? It not a thin spot, its just the way they dangle I guess
