Re: Circumsion
We are doing it at the hospital. I feel better knowing he is already at the hospital, just in case. At our newborn care class we had a pediatrician come in and explain in detail about the circumcision, healing, and how to care for it. And from what I understand the pain does not last weeks, just a day or two.
If you are going to do it does it really matter when he experiences the pain? Before he heads home or after he is already home?
I'm not having a boy, but if I was I would do it within the first few days, probably before leaving the hospital.
It's usually recommend to do it between 24hrs to 72 hrs after birth. After that there is more chance of bleeding or complications. After a couple of weeks they remember pain better and it can be more traumatic.
This will be our first son, but I asked my OB at my last appt who does it and when- and this is what she said as well. The day after birth, in the hospital

Baby girl due 11/22/12!
Ds2... The NICU won't do circ's. irks me as I'd like to have it done before we leave, but whatever. He will have it done at his two week well visit. Well, two weeks after he comes home. He's already over two weeks, actual!
Our little man will not be circ'd.
This I think it was the second and last day we were there, I went home a day early.
Not circumcising. It's a harmful, outdated procedure and not necessary for my sons health.
This is absolutely disgusting. He has had enough trauma already and you want to perform an unnecessary cosmetic procedure on your NICU baby??? It's not your body. You have no moral right to cut off a healthy part of HIS body.
Get the hell off this board. Nobody here needs you or anybody else spewing your crap. Did you notice that until you decided answer that nobody else on this board gave an opinion or a reason one way or the other? That's because it IS a decision made by the parents of a newborn boy. There will be a lot of decisions that I will have to make for my son in his life. There is nothing wrong with circ'ing, there is nothing wrong with not. It is a personal decision made by each family for whatever reasons they see fit.
Now, really, get the hell off this board with your two posts where you do not belong.

Shoving your ignorant opinions down someone else's throat is outdated. What someone chooses to do with/for their children isn't your business. Your facts, by the way, are invalid. Thanks for playing though.
To the troll:
To the OP:
It is DH's decision as to whether or not we'll have LO circ'd and he hasn't made it yet. If he does decide to have it done, it will be done at 8 days or older in the pedi's office.

I can't believe she actually came back...guh!
And while I agree that you have a right to be on an open online forum, we also have the RIGHT to crap all over you for being the douchecanoe that you are. Forcing your options down peoples throats, just NO! When is that ever okay? You know when?? NEVER!
So you can either go away or just deal with the fact that we will think you are cray-cray and GIF the hell out of you
My favorite part? She's more getting called out by people who AREN'T circ-ing. Up top, Jolie!
What the hell are you talking about? My husband's human rights, like millions of American men, were violated at birth when a healthy and functional part of his body was cut at birth. What is this blog you are talking about? You are confusing me with someone else dear.
You forced your opinions about a natural, intact penis on your son/s when you had a part of his penis cut off. A part that he might want back. The foreskin restoration movement is growing everyday. More and more men are waking up and realizing what was done to them at birth and are seeking to regain it back.
