Babies on the Brain

saw a circumcision today in clinical

It was not as bad as I thought it would be. In fact, seeing how it was done made it less scary for me. (though I'm sure that most other people would not agree with me).

  • I have seen many and I really don't think it is that big a deal. Usually the baby doesn't cry at all or just a bit when the do the first shot of lidocane.

  • yeah...with experienced practitioners, it's really not bad...with the lidocaine and then some sugar water, most babies could care less...

    i've also seen many botched..mostly by residents...and a few family practice docs who never do them...and those are just depressing to watch.
