Ear piercing is a rite of passage that marks a critical stage in your baby’s life. It generates a lot of anxiety among parents who imagine all sorts of things that can go wrong with the child. The parents are rightfully worried about the pain that the child may have to undergo and the possibility of infection.
If your baby is otherwise healthy, it is best to wait till the age of four months to ensure that her earlobes are developed and that she has received two doses of tetanus vaccination, at least (DPT).
