My daughter was around that age when we had it done. I don’t remember exactly. She never messed with them or had any problems. She didn’t even cry so I’m not sure if they even hurt when they did it. She’s 9 now and has always loved her earrings.
I wish I got my daughters done as a baby. That’s when I got mine and I don’t remember any pain or anything from it. It wasn’t until I was older and got more ear piercings that I started have more and more issues. It’s up to you, but if you want them done while she’s a baby you should do it soon, before she starts grabbing and pulling on things. If she doesn’t want them when she’s older than she can take them out. But I honestly see no issue with getting them pierced as a baby, just make sure its hyperallogenic metal that won’t corrode or cause issues. You’re her momma, it’s your choice. Many pediatricians will pierce babies ears now just so the parents dont have to worry too much. You just have to make sure you clean them. And after a couple days they’re not going to bother her anymore. I think it’s cute and up to each parent. But don’t let some of these women bully you into not getting it done. It’s easier for her to just take them out when she’s older than to get them pierced when she’ll remember how painful and hard it is to get them done.
I waited until my daughter was old enough to ask. But she decided she didn’t like the earrings. I helped her take them out. It’s her body, she gets to call the shots.

Why is there an age to consent to having their bodies touched, but not an age to consent to having holes poked through them?!
The age of consent is there to protect them and give them the rights to decide themselves on what happens to their bodies. But it’s apparently perfectly OK to have permanent, painful holes put in them as long as a parent says it’s OK 
I can’t wait to get my daughters!! She’s 3 months I have to wait till she’s 6 months to take her to the certain place I want to have it done at. I know she’s gonna look so cute with her ears pierced

Everyone preaching age consent but there are people out their getting there boys circumcised 
please this QUESTION is annoying! ITS YOUR KID MAKE YOUR OWN DECISION!
I did my daughters ears at 3 months but it is your prefrence
Not everyone wants their ears pierced. I never had pierced ears. Let them make their own decisions.
if youre going to do it take her to a tattoo piercing shop and get it done that way… ALOT less damage and trauma to the ear…
3 weeks old and 3 years old
I have not gotten any of my girls ears pierced. I want them to be able to make that decision on their own. My oldest is now 9 and has asked to get her ears pierced so once she can show us a bit more responsibility I told her we would have them done. In the end it is your child. Don’t do anything you don’t want to do and don’t let anyone tell you that you are wrong. You do what you feel is best for your child
