How many people actually chose to circumcise vs. not? Statistics show a pretty big decrease in the number of circumcisions, but an overwhelming majority of my other BMB did circumcise, so curious to see what the stats are for A14.

This! It didn't matter to me what other people do, I did what was best for my sons and that was not circing. The circ rate is 50% in the US. I don't think you see a higher concentration on the bump.
Yeah, my mom said something to me like "I assume you got him circumcised..." Um, WHAT? Not sure why she would "assume" that. I mean, he's, it was our plan to circ, but why would she "assume" that?
as the rates are declining and the paediatric society advises against. I researched it extensively throughout my pregnancy before we made a decision. Only 32% of parents chose to circumcise in Canada last year. Many hospitals (all of them here in my city) and many doctors (again almost all in my city) will not perform circumcisions. It was a tough choice for sure.
Natural miscarriage @ 8 weeks - 3/8/2005

"G-Unit" born - 4/14/2014 and he's 100% perfection!!
Was done at the hospital most people I know with boys have it done ( near Toronto Canada )
I'm sure he wasn't the only one, but still it does/did happen
Funny story, he told his mother we planned on it if we had a boy (team green) and she had a meltdown at the hospital because she said we would traumatize the baby.
I agree with what others are saying, it's nobodies business to begin with. It's a personal decision made by mom and dad.
Also...a penis works "easier" circumcised?! Do enlighten us.
