We are waiting until she is old enough to ask for them herself and at that time they'll be done with a needle instead of a gun.
I agree with all of this.
If you want them done as an infant, ask your pedi's office first - some offer the service. If I ever were to consider it (slim to none chance), I would only do it there.
Eh, what can I say, I'm latina and we believe in doing it when they are 3 months old. DD cried for 3 minutes and we moved on like nothing ever happened.
I was actually looking to get her ears pierced so I call our pediatrician's office and was told that they do them, which is awesome, and they told me that as long as she's had her second round of shots (so basically after month 4), you're pretty much good to go.
So there you go. We're going in on Thursday to get hers pierced.
