I circumcised my first son - this was 9 years ago but the procedure was very hard to watch and they cry every time they pee for days. I did not circumcise my second son.
We did ours before we even left the hospital. He screamed bloody murder when he peed for a few days due to the urine irritating him, but otherwise we had no issues. Pick up extra vasaline or auqaphor to put in his diaper to keep the diaper from irritating him, but otherwise it was healed after a week and a half
I did not do it to my sons. If you choose not to, you have to teach them to be really clean with it.
I did mine slept through the whole procedure and didn’t fuss while it was healing, but we made sure to keep it coated in Vaseline and gauze till it healed and made sure to stay on top of giving him children Tylenol
My son is but that is part of our religion. He was also in the nicu when it was done so thankful the nurses and everyone's took great care of him never had a problem. Lots of aquaphor on the diaper
My twin got her sons done and he didn't react at all. Not even afterwards when healing. I think it just depends.
I did not do it. Just teach them to properly clean themselves. And if you choose not to do it, do not let others shame you for your decision because believe it or not mostly everywhere else in the world it is totally normal to not be circumcised it’s really just a thing in America.
I did. It was a hard thing to watch but I made sure the doctor who did it put a topical anesthetic. I did it 8 days after he was born because my ob wouldn’t do it at the hospital. Baby Tylenol, bacitracin and a&d ointment for a week and he was good. I didn’t enjoy it but it was worth it for me. I can’t see myself teaching him how to clean it and stuff. And I have heard horror stories when you don’t clean it properly. My brother had to do it as an adult and it was no fun for him.
My son got it the day after being born my OB did his he slept through it she said he did very well tho during the process he only cried one time afterwards that was the first pee afterwards they give you a lot of Vaseline and gauze
I did and they use something called a plastibell or something like that. I wasn’t there for the procedure, but we had it done in the hospital when he was two days old with that one we didn’t have to put any Vaseline or anything on it. Just keep it dry. He wasn’t in pain at all and urinated perfectly fine with no indication of anything being wrong or changing
My boys is scheduled for tomorrow
