Sitting here with my hunny talking about our little guy & somehow we got on the subject of circumcision ... We both want him to get circumcised but I know I can't be in the room when it happens. I'm kinda nervous about it lol how long does it usually take to heal?? Do they give you medicine or something to put on it?? I have daughters so this is all going to be new for me...
I got my son done In Winston at the Heath plaza IT was 200 they gave him a numbing shot and put gauze around it I had to keep vasaline on it so it didn't stick to the diaper it took about a week @beenpretty1 @mamamj @mommytoaprince @nic143ole @siababy
Oh okay ... Well maybe it all just depends on the type of medical coverage you have @mamamj
my son was born in January, we have Blue Cross Blue Shield Federal and his was covered?
@nic143ole, @siababy thanks ladies! I'm glad they don't allow you to be in the room lol I don't want to see my little guy in pain! I'm also glad to know since it's not covered by insurance it won't cost that much. I guess it's not covered anymore because it's more like a cosmetic thing ....
@nic143ole, my sons circumsion cost me 100. that was in the hospital. If I would have waited until after to do it at a pediatric office it would have been 400. but I'm also in the state of NC. so the costs may be different.
i couldn't be in the room with my son cause they were cirumcising several babies at one time but I think it took my son a week to heal. if even that. They gave me tubes of neosporin to put on it and you put a gauze over the head of his penis after every diaper change so it won't stick to the diaper.
I have a son and I'm having another in August and I recently heard insurance no longer covers circumcision ... Now this I hope is false that would cost like 2 grand I'm sure lol
It heals in a couple days and they do not do it in the room with you lol they spray numb them and then do the procedure and your job just to keep it clean .
I’m sorry but I’m still not circumcising my son 🤷🏽♀️ and I don’t care what anyone has to say about it either cause it’s not right to me. That’s their decision to make.
how do you guys feel about circumcising ?
What are yalls thoughts on circumcision? My husband and I argue about this a lot.
*I'm just looking for others perspectives*
I want to have my son circumcised, my husband who is uncircumcised does not want our son to get the procedure. I don't know much about the difference because I'm a woman, we don't have a religious preference to do it, just I'm just curious about what others plan on doing for their son!
What are y'all thoughts of boys circumcision? I know my son getting it, gotta keep infections away, but how do other mothers feel about it,?
I got both my boys circumcised .... they just had me put a glob of Vaseline on it and a piece of gauze ... for like a week or 2 ... then got rid of the gauze and kept up the Vaseline for a little bit. super easy :)
