Baby earrings- for those who have gotten DD's ears pierced ( question)

DD still has the little gold balls that the ped put in her ears....

For her 1st birthday gift, we are going to get her a pair of little diamond studs..Where would I be able to get the same type as the ones she has- that lock on the back Chat Icon ??

I have diamond studs that have the screw on backs, but I'm thinking that those would be tough to get on her...

My mother in law got some custom made with a backing thats good for her..I think any jeweler could get them made on a setting and backing that won't be the screw back

DD has 3 pairs of earrings, and I use the backs that came with her first pair on the others.

Thats good to know....I didn't know if the back itself is what locked it on, or if there was a groove or something on the post...

I found the screw-ons to be a PITA. I got her a pair if huggies and they are a lot easier.

Are huggies most likely the type she has now ( they have kind of like a groove or something that keeps them from popping off) ? Ideally thats what I would like again...

Where can I get these "huggies" ?Chat Icon

It's actually both. Most posts (look at your own) have a groove that the back locks into.

These are the ones DD has -

They look like hoops - but they "hug" the ears and don't dangle.

I got them online at Loveivy


You can see how they look in this pic
