Babies: 9 - 12 Months

Boys and Ear Piercing

Mamas with Boys, will you get your LOs ear(s) pierced? I have seen a few pics (not on the bump) but around with little boys with their ear pierced. What are your thoughts?

 I personally do not like it on baby boys.

  • No.  If J wants to pierce his ear later, he can (I'll cringe - I'm so preppy).  But I'm not doing it for him.

    I wouldn't have pierced a baby girl's ears though either.  I don't have a problem with others doing it - I just think she should be old enough to take care of them herself.

  • Absolutely not. My son can get his own ears pierced when he's 18 if he chooses. Same for my daughter.

    No. I will not force my style onto him. That's just weird. If he wants an earring when he's older (way older) we can talk about it.
  • No, but the same would go if we had a baby girl. We'd want our LO to decide for him/herself.  DH has earrings (captive bead ones, slightly stretched holes etc) so it would make sense if DS wants earrings when he's older. But his choice.

  • I don't have a boy...but I would NEVER get their ears pierced! I won't even get DD's ears until a long time. NMS on babies.

  • I have never seen such a thing on a baby boy. I would never do this to my son, if he wants to do that then he can when he is 18 year old.

    I don't have a DS, but this is me. 

  • No way.

    One of my friends had her 10-month-old son's left ear pierced. He wears a CZ stud. Hmm

  • HEEEEEEEEEEELL NO

    If he wants to do it in college, maybe even later high school, fine. No way I'd let him get anything pierced before then!

    Are there really baby boys out there with piercings? Tongue Tied

  • No. If he wants them pierced he can pay for it himself later in life.

  • No, I really hope he doesn't want his ears pierced later on as a teen either.  It looks weird IMO.

  • Even if we did for some reason get his ear peirced, he'd probably rip the thing out in 2 mintues anyway!

  • I have never seen it on boys younger than 12...who's doing it to their infant???
  • DH and I were talking about this a while ago, and we will let him pierce his ear as a teenager if he wants, but he wont be allowed to gage it or anything until he turns 18, and pays for it himself. Basically for me, its one of those battle things i am willing to give up. But i would never ever do it until he asks. The same will go if we have a DD. Until they are old enough to take care of it themselves and they know what they are getting into, then they can have it!
