When to pierce my baby girl ears???

[Shanti]

I don't believe in babies getting their ears pierced either. They should be able to have a say in if they want it done or not.....

I had to wait til i was 13yrs old before Mum would let me get it done!!

Skye, some boys still get their ears done, personally i think that it looks awful on a small boy (sorry if anyone on here has a baby BOY with piercing) ... these kids love theirs but i dont think that they would have asked to have it done....
None of DSS (10yrs) have pieced ears, i dont think that its the norm at all.

Nah, I was just curious. Wouldn't consider it til at least school age & only if he wanted it. Just wondering if it was still cool.

i was thinking this the other day ... is it still cool

Jess: thanks for putting this thread in .. i had been asking myself the same question and like you didnt realise i was such an issue ...

i had mine done at about 3months old ..

and i feel id like to get DD's some around the same time if not earlier ..just with small studs
my friend has her dd done at a very early age ( 6 wks i think ) and i thought it looked sweet , she was the only girl in the playgroup and she looked like a rose amongst the thorns she still wears studs and has never had a problem

I chose to have mine done at age 8.

My 13yo DD never wants hers done.

I personally don't like the feeling of jewellery on my body and only wear small sleepers to keep my holes open. I don't even wear any rings. My DD is the same... is 'irked' by the feeling of jewellery.
