Ear Piercing

I know this is controversial but DH and I definitely are going to get Peyton's ears pierced sometime in the next six months.  I am fairly positive my pedi does not do it but I will ask for sure at her two month check up.  Any recs on where we can take her if the pedi doesnt do it?

    I actually just read an article about this last night!  They said that if you're going to do it you need to make sure she has a "hanging lobe" - if she doesn't you should wait until she does because as she grows it will pull and tear the piecing hole.

    Mine were done when I was under 6 months and I am so glad my mom did it that way.  If we have a girl, I am doing the same thing.

    Would a place like Claire's do it on a baby?

    I know that Kristin got Alexa's done at an ear nose and throat doctor. Maybe try paging her?

    I had my dd's done at Claire's and she was almost 10 months.  I know this thread isn't about the controversy, but there are sooo many reasons why I'm glad we did it young.

    So you were happy with Claires then?  Im a little skeptical about them for a baby for some reason...

    I had my DDs done at Edgewood Pediatrics in Commerce.  It was a great experience.  The earliest they will do it is after the 6 month shots.

    My Pedi's office does this, they are at 22 and Hayes.  It's Dr. Ventimiglia (586) 532-0599.  We had our daughters done when she was 3 months old and she's never bothered them.
