The navel is a tough piercing to heal because there is little blood flow to the area, and infection can very easily set in. But, plenty of CS and Neosporin should heal it up just fine. Keep in mind that it's not unheard of for navel piercings to migrate to the surface to some degree before completely healing, and if it migrates enough there is the danger that the jewelry could get snagged and rip out.
