Piercing an infants ears. What do you think?

Don't forget there's always the chance of infection with piercing, No matter how low the risk, I wouldn't take it with a baby.

I have no objections to having a babies ears pierced.

There must be a culture difference. Here I haven't seen anybody who will give an infant ears pierced. As there will be possible for them to have the infection. As you know, they are babies and they are still so young. Why not give them ear pierced when they grow up? It will not be too late anyway. Let her make the decision. As to me, I have never had my ears pieced.

My daughter got her ears pierced when she was 9 years old. I let it be her choice. I would worry that the baby would play with an earring and rip it out or swallow it. There are so many bad things that could happen. I would always prefer to play it safe.

This is a personal choice. I waited until my daughter was like 2 or so and she asked me to do hers. She kept pulling on my earring and saying she wanted them too. Finally I did it. But not me. I had my best friend do it for me. I didn't want to see her cry. But in the end she never cried and she was so proud of her new earrings. I personally don't see anything wrong with it and I think it's fine to do it now. My daughter did her baby's ears at 3 months.
