Right on Tennesseegirl!!! I do things like that with my daughter too. She now wants her tongue done and I see nothing wrong with that either...mine is done and I have no regrets! Belly buttons will be next for us too. We're even talking about getting tatoos together...whoo hoo!!!
I waited on my dd too.. till wow she was like 10. and I had to wait when I was young.. I hated it!! these days I dont think it really matters on the ears..and babys look soooo cute with them... ;p
my dd and I on her 16th birthday went and got our belly buttons done togather... she thought that was the coolest thing for me to get it done with her. of course I took mine out.. aaaaaw thank god.. lol but she was mad when I did.. and keeps asking me if im going to re do it..I can see it really touched her for me to do such a thing. There are so many other things we can do as mother and daughter.. MALL.. is her all time fav.. lol
ok.. johannnaviles...
did the ob do the piercing? this is what I was looking for.. ahah... this is what I love about this forum.. you get to hear the stories and get your information required.
so did you have to set it up befor hand? my mind these day... I wish I could remember where I read about this..It was a list of pros... for those that are going to do it.. to do it at the hospital.. and right away...?
They pierced my daughters ears at the Hospital the day after I gave birth to her. Thats how they did it to me, my sisters and nieces, nothing wrong happened to any of us, I guess it depends on each culture...interesting
A pediatrician will do for extra clean safety sake but I think once the baby is 6 months or so
I had my daughters done at 2 months. My daughter does not remember anything.
