Someone got her ears pierced last Wednesday. She did so good. We took her to her Doctor to get them done. She was so smiley at the nurse, got pierced and started crying. As soon as they finished she stopped and smiled at them again. So far she hasn't pulled on them and the redness went away pretty quickly.
I can't get a straight on shot because her cheeks are too big!
Definitely the best thing I did was get Edie's ears pierced when she was a baby. They never got infected. A couple of minutes of crying and she was over it. She still doesn't touch or acknowledge them.
ReplyDeleteThat's good to know! My parents waited till I was older and I remember wishing they got them done when I was a baby.
DeleteShe looks like such a little lady!
ReplyDeleteshe is :)
DeleteThey are so pretty! I want to wear earrings!
ReplyDeleteme too haha
DeleteCaitlin,
ReplyDeleteWas searching for my GF's blog and came across yours. Loved your thoughtful reasoning and description and pictures of having your dd's ears pierced as an infant. I think you were a super smart mommy for doing it now when mommy can care for them. She'll thank you later!
Our ped also encouraged to do it before six months :) I think babies and little girls with pierced ears are adorable. It celebrates their femininity and femaleness.
Our ped gave me some suggestions for moms having their infant dd's ears pierced as well as for "Tips for moms having their dd's ears pierced/Care of Newly Pierced Ears."
If you or any other moms thinking about it and want to do it now or would like them, write me an e-mail.
