They do it it in north africa. I dont think people would do it here. But you could let someone do it at home. Just be careful.

I highly dont recommend it. Your babies ears are still growing if you pierce them to early once they get older the hole might not be centered and it wont look as good as it would if you had just waited. Just wait until the baby is three months and the ear lobe is grown to a nice size

Some places do it at 6 weeks and some at 3 months but I don't think any place will do it to a 10 day old

No one will pierce a baby under 2 months and until they have their first shots, you should wait until she has her first shots.

I don't know any places that will pierce your baby's ears this early. Most places won't until they're 2 months!

I'm going to pierce my baby girls ears while she's that small.

Yes you can get them pierced now. It's very cute and honestly it's better when they are younger because they can't mess with it when it's in the healing process.

Any reputable place will not touch a baby that young. Most places won't pierce a baby under 3 months and they have to have received their first lot of shots
