it really is a brutal thing to do to a baby. watch a video and you will cry.
This is such a controversal topic.. there is not reason to circumsize and most insurances do not cover it by the way because it is considered a cosmetic proceedure so if you do check with your insurance first. Also i higgly advise you google or youtube it and watch an actual video of one on a newborn. They strap them to a table and slice away with NO ANESTHESIA. Just some things to think about. ultimately you need to do what you think is right but animals all have the sheeth on the penis and they do not get infected and neither typically do humans and either way what ever you believe in it is in our instincts of survival to reproduce and something would not be given to us if it was going to risk our own survival and the process of reproduction.
My son is not and neither is my husband foreskin is not a birth defect and no one should cut any part of there newborn baby like that. Foreskin is there for a reason... I know many people believe in it but both our families never circumcised and there was never an issue. In the end it's a personal decision i know I wouldn't want my parents to cut part of me to save on cleaning time... Wholenetwork has a lot of information. Make the right choice for your son do your own research educate yourself on circumsision.
My son is 11 and not circumcized I taught him how to pull the skin back to clean his penis. He has never had an infection. So far so good. It's a give or take he just have to clean himself very well at all times
Ok thank you. I live in Nebraska seems like lots of you are from California
Not all doctors do it before you leave the hospital, mine didn't. I think it depends. The doctor that delivered my son offered to do it, but he likes them to be between 2-4 Weeks old so they fit the tools. I live in sacramento California and it was $150
