Ok here's a controversial topic. And just to start off right, I don't judge ANYONE &I I admire everyone's opinion equally. But I am curious and must ask, at what point after delivery do they circumcise newborn boys? Is it within the next 24 hours? Very shortly after? Or what? And have they evolved in the sense of pain management? I'm choosing to circumcise my son, but I want a little more information on the topic mainly because I want to breastfeed and I want skin to skin for as long as possible after birth? How long does it take? Also please do not judge my decisions as I would never judge yours!!! I'm just a curious mama and I want to know what to expect in the delivery room. Thank you ladies ❤

@malachaiesmama, it only took them like 10 minutes to do it.
@loveerii, how long was he away from you?
@mrs.n2014, I feel a whole world of better!not sure what's up with my anxiety this week but I feel like I'm freaking out over everything!!! Maybe because my friend just had her daughter via c sec and now I'm just ready to have my son in my arms! Preparing myself for delivery as much as possible lol, how long do they take them away for! Do they bring them back right after?
@twinpeanut, oh man I feel so much better!!! Thank you! How long exactly will he be away from me? I'm
Planning to breastfeed
They did my son's the same morning that we left . They would've done it sooner but he had jaundice
source, I'm a nurse and watch them being done/used to assist
depends on the hospital but they do it before you leave. They do medicate for pain and can also give a binky that tastes sweet. it takes about 5 minutes. they put a little circle device on the winkie and go around the circle. then its done. yes they are placed on an infant sized board to make sure arms and legs are out of the way (newborns are used to being curled up)
@malachaiesmama it didnt take very long i think, but he was away for about 3 hours. Only because my nurses made the decision to take him to the nursery instead of bringing him back to me! So make sure you ask for him after a while
@shelbyurbanyi, awesome, how long did it take/how long were you away from him?
I had my son at night and they did it the next day.
@mrs.n2014, thank you 😊that makes me feel better! I've heard these terrible horror stories!
only a few minutes you will be able to breastfeed
