Ear piercing

Hi! My baby is 3 months old. I want to pierce her ear but she has been touching her ears and behind them too kinda in a wild way lol and Im afraid of that can be an problem to heal the ears later. Any recommendations?

Just don’t do it. :) it’s just a cosmetic thing and if she’s already doing something that would cause her more discomfort for the days after it then I would be even more worried about doing it. Personally. X

I personally think it’s a good idea to wait till they can ask for it themselves, I had mine done at 6 months and they’ve ended up being so uneven now

I got my ears pierced when I was 3. They were uneven and didn't heal properly and now I'm stuck with the holes that will not close since they've been there for years. At the end of the day it is up to you but I'd personally wait until she's old enough to confirm if she would like them done. Xx

Had mine done since i was around 3 months old never had any problems with them and they’re not uneven and have no memory of it so didn’t traumatise me😂, as long as you go to a professional and not somewhere like Claires accessories you should be fine As for her touching or pulling her ears a lot check for any ear infections and try to redirect attention away from her ears before taking her to have them done

honestly when i had my ears pierced i really remember the burning feeling after i was about 7 but a baby does not know to not touch. a baby will pull at their ear if they are in pain even more so. i would just wait

Once she starts teething she will pull at her ears even more! The mouth nerves run all the way to the ears.

I got my little girls done when she was 2 she never touched them I didn’t bother when she was younger because babies pull at their ears x

@Ryann thank you! But my question it was not about if I should do it or not, that is a decision that was already made ☺️

No I know, but you also mentioned she is already touching at her ears, so I just gave my advice in regards to that :) at the end of the day you will make you’re own choice x
