How to Care for Newborn's Circumcision at Home?
Has anyone had to have their son's circumcision done like 2 weeks or so after they were born? If so, how did you care for it at home? He was bleeding a bunch last night and I called the pediatrician (but, the pediatrician didn't do the circumcision...it was my OB that did my c-section). She gave me some advice, told me I could use a&d or neosporin (sp?). I'm wondering if I can use a cleansing spray so I don't have to rub on it and hurt him. I use bactine on my c-section site...I don't think it would hurt him.

@hippiebaby89, I can't find the cream but I guess use the cream the doctor recommends
@hippiebaby89, I had it done by a rabbi - their basically experts in this stuff they do it all the time ... He told us to put a cream ( I'll take a pic of it ) on a Q tip because I was afraid to hurt my son , and to put a good amount on the penis OR you can also put the cream on the gauze and place it gently on the penis and wrap it around . If they bleed a little it's okay - when you take off the old gauze .
You put the Vaseline onto the gauze and then fold it in half and let the excess go through. Then you wrap it around the penis
They told me to do what I did in the hospital so his diaper doesn't stick to it and make it bleed. @hippiebaby89
OB said to use vasoline, but it's hard to get on. Pediatrician said use a&d, That works...but I want to clean it. I wasn't told to use gauze by either. I'm so confused. I don't want him to start bleeding again if I clean it with a wipe
A whole lot of Vaseline like douse the gauze on it or the gauze will stick to the skin and cause a whole lot of pain to you and him when you go to remove it!
When my son was circumcised, I put the Vaseline cream stuff of a piece of gaze and laid it on his little wiener, it healed fast and didn't hurt him since I was never actually touching it.
I used a Q tip to put the cream on , the baby was fine and it didn't hurt .
i'm getting my baby circumcised tomorrow & it makes me so sad. i want to do it but i don't want to see him hurting :( makes me cry every time i think about it
Yesterday I went out with my boyfriend went to watch a movie, me and him don't live together yet. but point is yesterday when he was dropping me off his like sleep over at my house witch the mom and dad lives. I said no,
his response was why is everyone deciding or making choices for you and their going to do the same with the baby, when I know that's not true. what he thinks is that my mom tells me not to sleep over. So he left all mad. and I felt in my heart that he went on and cheated on me...
Trigger. Lost baby
Went in for my 20 week check up and found out our son had passed away. Nothing was wrong, my pregnancy has been going great. I'm so numb right now. I'll he delivering him later this week. I don't want to do this. I don't want to do this. Not before Christmas. How am I'm going to tell my kids?? My dear sweet baby boy. Why did this happen?
Has anyone had sex before there 6 week check up ? And did it hurt like really bad for my first baby I had a c section and now for my second I had a vaginal birth so I am super scare 🤭
My 5 year old brother just got circumcised due to all the infections he kept on getting & seeing him in so much pain not being able to walk makes me glad I got my son circumcised as a newborn & planning on doing the same with my second baby.
ok. I mean I used a squirt bottle to clean it and put a lot of ointment on it. I'll have to get gauze I don't think I have any. thank you ladies
