ear piercing

If you had your DD's ears pierced, when and where did you go? I'm still on the fence about it, and would like some insight.

Re: ear piercing

  • We're having it done by the doctor.  They'll do it for us once she turns 6 months which is at the end of this month.

    Personally, I wouldn't take her to a place in the mall or a jewelry store.  I don't think they have the equipment in place to sanitize the piercing gun nor would I be at all comfortable with some 19 year old coming at my kid with that contraption.

  • We had E's ears pierced at the piercing pagoda store in the Deptford mall.  The lady who did it was a master piercer and had over 20 years of experience.  She was pretty awesome and even gave us her number in case we went home and had questions.
  • I had DD's ear pierced at a ear and her pedi did them. 
  • We had DD1's done at Piercing Pagoda the same day she had her 3 month shots (we asked the pedi while we were there and she said it was fine and it was a good time because they just gave her tylenol).

    I never got around to doing DD2s and don't plan to do DD3s either.

    When my oldest was 4 she decided she hated her earings and wanted them out, so we took them out and let the holes close. She asked me why we "gave" her earings and I didn't have an answer for her, so I decided I'll let the girls tell me when they want them. If there 3 or 13, I'll take them -- I just want it to be their choice.

    It's one of my biggest mom regrets so far because I felt like such an a$$ for not having a reason for getting her ears pierced without asking if she even wanted it.
