Most of my friends pierced their daughters' ears when they are babies, not too long after birth, maybe 3 or 4 months. I reckon they do this because it's pretty common in the community and since the babies are really young, there is supposedly little memory of the painful memory. As long as it's done right and in a sterile environment, there won't be any harm done to the baby. I had mine pierced when I was barely a month old. I never thought about it much but looking back on my teenage years, I'm glad I had them pierced young because I saw some of my friends go through the harrowing experience. Personally, I'd pierce my daughter's ears when she's a baby. She'll probably want them pierced when she's older so why not just cut to the chase?
