I have read along time ago.. If you are going to pierce there ears.. to have the dr do it.? ... ok I wish I read more about this article, but I just glanced.. but now I wonder.... is it the childrens dr or the delivery  dr that does it?
has anyone heard of this???

hummm well I'll just ask their pediatrician and see what he reccomends......I too hate to see boys with pierced ears.......I pierce my belly button too and my b/f  then DH now chased me around til i took it out....he's really old fashion and he only wants 1 hole per ear....I wanted to get my top done he says no.

I think it is fine both ways.. for latinas it is a cultural norm... but... I will just wait

I had my  daughters done at the mall about 6 months of age and she was fine. I don't think thats a major worry. I got my daughter tiny little diamonds and she never played with them or tried to take them off.

lol i had mine done at maybe 8, i threw up
then i had them done again because they were crooked, well they were crooked too so i had them done a 3rd time

then i became a teenager and maybe 12 holes in one ear i did the rest myself after the first 3.  then my bellybutton twice, my nose.  id have done my nipples but i dont heal well from piercings.  im afraid my baby might do the same poor girl.  

i cant stand when i see little boys with pierced ears..........

I was thinking it was 6 weeks so that way they don't pull on their ears and get them infected maybe it was 6 months.....heck if i know.....I might not even get them done til she tells me she wants them too....I didn't have mine til I was 16 and my mom flipped I did it myself......

I LOOK FORWARD TO ALL THE SPECIAL MOTHER/DAUGHTER things we can share and this is one of them.  for me i dont want to encourage her to grow up any faster than she will.  my 9 yr old keeps telling me he needs a phone!!  why?  he is always with me lol.  if you choose to do it spend a few dollars making sure its a reputable place....
