What size did she go to from 18g? Take care of it the same way the piercer advised when it was done the first time.

Whenever you gauge up you have to treat it like a brand new piercing all over again, (and don't try any MAJOR gauge jumping) Keep it clean, with a liquid antibacterial, and let it heal completely before you change jewelry. Belly rings are one of the slowest healing pierces, let it rest at least 2 months after changing gauges..
