Where to ear pierce for infant?

lindseymoholland

My pedi doesn't do it...my daughter is 8 mos old and I want to get her ears pierced. Anyone know of a place in Houston/Katy/Sugar Land that specializes in infant ear piercing? Or what was your experience?

 Thanks and Happy Weekend!

We are going to Claire's in the mall this weekend to have DD's ear's pierced.

DD's pedi did it. He did it at her 4m follow-up, gave her vaccinations and did her ears. They came out great! Its worth a try to ask if your pedi's office will do it.

At 8 months, I honestly think it's too late for you to get it done without increasing the risk of infection.  She's at the age where her hands are all over the place probably, including her mouth, and she will most likely touch and grab on her ears from the discomfort.  The usually recommendation if you were to do it when they're little is 4-6 months.  After 6 months, you just have to wait until they're older enough to take care of it themselves.
