Oh I know. I didn't take any offense to that at all... But being reported when clearly they were the ones judging is wrong.. I had commented on another post regarding formula feeding and that post has been deleted as well and there was nothing wrong with it..

I hope you know I wasn't trying to start anything on your last post, I just meant when I joined the site in 2008 with my first pregnancy everyone was so supportive and helpful, and it's gotten progressively worse for some reason. I try to be as helpful and respectful to others as I can, but I expect that respect back. I don't judge anyone for their decisions and I hate when people do it to me. I guess it had nothing to do with your specific post on the costs of things, just generally agreeing that this site isn't as supportive as it once was.

Medicaid covers circumcision in ny.  I never heard of anyone paying for it . & I asked the insurance company & they said they do . Idk if it depends on the state or the hospital .

Were I from in Fresno CA they range from 200-350 n no medical covers it because its considerd a cosmetic surgery so luckily were able to afford it cause a circumcision is important

If your insurance covers it you can get it done while on hospital, I had my sons done in the hospital..not sure if u can get it done in hospital if insurance doesn't pay for it. You can always call and ask

How do you go about planning it? Do I need to contact a pediatrician now? I thought the hospital does it

I was wondering how much it would cost this time.
With my first it was 400 out of pocket we just paid 100 each visit so it was good to go when he was born. But that was five years ago so I need to find out! Im hoping its gone down a little. Its the same Dr whom did his so I doubt it.
