No-I expected them to get one of the doctors to do the piercing-but those two nurses were horrified at the very idea that I’d want my baby’s ears pierced, even after I explained that it was customary to do that. I insisted that if they clip boys, a girl should be able to get a simple ear piercing, but the logic of that was completely lost on them.

that is weird that they were aghast. surely they wouldn't raise an eyebrow up here as we have every stripe of foreigner on the planet, and many of them also pierce the ears at birth. i think it's adorable. i waited til mine were 3 to pierce their’s. My jewish OB circumcised xsboy in the hospital.

I don’t think it’s a doctor’s or nurse’s job to pierce ears. You did it yourself, which is the correct solution.
