The only component of the water in a swimming pool other than water is Chlorine and it will not hurt, infect or damage in anyway a recently pierced ear...
The answer is, yes you can go after it...

I think it would be better off to wait until they heal-you never know what kind of infection you can get from the water. There is always bacteria in the water, regardless if its in a private pool or else where, and that is an open wound. Just wait till you heal.

Not sure. I would leave it a while, until they are healed. They could be more open to infection immediately after piercing, and also, I would imagine the chlorine might irritate.

You can, however, when you are done, be sure to clean the jewelry and ear very, very well. Chlorine can infect new piercings. Just use mild soap and water.

I think you are supposed to wait a week or so, so they have time to heal a little bit. The chlorine might irritate your ears.

Yes you can. Water will not hurt your ears just like if you were taking a shower.

I don't see why not. Just clean them afterwards to get the chlorine water out.
