First Earrings for Little Princesses – What To Know
Share
Hello! I’m originally from the Czech Republic and currently living in Germany. My two young daughters mean the world to me, and when they were born, I started looking for their first earrings—something gentle, beautiful, and meaningful. This journey inspired the creation of Adelti, because I believe every little princess deserves to wear jewelry that’s not only lovely, but also safe and comfortable.
Choosing your baby’s first earrings is a beautiful and pivotal moment. Whether you decide on piercing right after birth or later, it’s important to know your options and understand what matters most.
⏳ When Is the Right Time for First Earrings?
The timing for ear piercing varies with family traditions and cultural practices.
In the Czech Republic, it’s common to pierce ears within the first three months—sometimes even in the maternity ward. It’s a tradition passed down through generations.
In Germany, however, earrings are usually given later, often when the child is older and can agree to it themselves. Here, parents tend to view earrings as a personal choice by the child rather than a given.
From a medical perspective, the optimal time is around 3 to 6 months—at this age, the baby has completed basic vaccinations and the tissue still heals quickly. What matters most is that the parents feel confident—each family follows their own rhythm.
✍️ Two Methods: Needle or Piercing Gun
Needle Piercing
This method is considered the most gentle—a thin sterilized needle creates a clean puncture without unnecessary pressure. A chosen earring is then gently inserted.
It may feel slightly more painful since the earring is inserted after the needle is removed. However, you can choose the exact pair your baby will wear from the very start.
Piercing Gun
This method involves a quick piercing with a special tool, using the earring itself. It’s usually faster and less painful for the baby.
However, the earrings are typically larger and less delicate, and the choice is limited to basic models that must be worn during healing. Only afterward can you replace them with your chosen pair.
Both methods have their place—it’s up to you which feels right. If unsure, consult your pediatrician or local piercing specialist.
