    What about henna?
    You can just dip a fingertip in or if you're feeling arty do a design.
    It's non-toxic and temporary.

    The really black stuff has additives in it to make it so dark so if you buy some go for the redder shade because it's more natural.
    There's heaps of places online to buy it from.

    Just get a black marking texta and write their names on their backs :P

    With the ear's though, they are her children so totally up to her if she wants to get he pierced. Both of my girls have their ears done. Tehya was done at 10 weeks and Abbey 12 weeks. Neither have had any problem with them at all. No infection, no issues. I think that getting them done at an older age is when the infections are more likely as they will play with their ears with grubby fingers.

    I think it's a great idea for your mum to do.

    How are the twins going anyway

    thank Trish and Rach.

    Trish the twins are doing really well!
    They're slowly catching Alex in height but they're still tiny where as he's a big chubba!!
    Big gummy smiles and cute giggles and Charli has just started to roll over.
    It's so odd to see them with alex becauyse while they look so different they definitely share some of the same of my family genetics
    And mum's still going with the BFing and I'm so proud!! She's comp feeding because of low supply but with my brothers and I she gave up at 6, 8 & 10 weeks... and now with twins she's still going at 20.

    Hi, I had my daughters ears pierced at 5months, I would have had them done earlier but hubby was to scared that it might do damage.(an over protective dad of his first born LOL) They've never had an infection and were always commented on how cute they are, my daughter is 5.5years now and her school allows a pair of studs or sleepers to be worn(something I never considered). I think little studs look great on baby girls and your friend could get different colours for her girls which would help her tell them apart.
