How do other moms feel about circumcision ? Cause when I was pregnant with my first last year before losing him I was convinced I would have him circumsized but now that I am pregnant again and I'm having a boy , I've changed my mind completely I don't want to put my baby through that so early in life. :(
It is more a cosmetic reason. Also it doesn't always have a huge amount of extra skin. Just enough to protect it. @cecilia.irvin,
@nani720, if he has the procedure done, he is more prone to disease. And yeah as long as you can teach your child to be clean, there's no problem. I also don't think it's nasty
I'm against and my husband is for. it made the decision for our son difficult. I decided to leave it to my husband since I do not have a penis. when the doctor came in he also told us that it was simply cosmetic and there was absolutely no medical reason to have it done.
@nani720 you are absolutely right it hurt regardless but I did it while they were infants whether than older only because they won't remember the pain at that age compared to if they were older I never ran into a uncircumcised man in my relationship days so I'm not sure as far as how it looks or if a person knows how to properly clean it. But you said your mam isn't circumcised so it's really all up to you two and what you want and you two teaching him the proper care.
I didn't mean it like that @nani720 I meant as they get older like in their 20s and 30s and so on it looks nasty because of the extra skin that's just hanging and your right do what you think is best you have the final say so at the end of the day and your more than welcome 😊
It hurts regardless I think whether they're a baby or a grown man. My man isn't circumsized and his man part isn't nasty looking like one of you mommies said. I guess it's just a matter of keeping clean and teaching him how to. I was actually hearing about this thing that insurances want you to do it for the money of course. I think I won't do it to my boy and just always be safe with it. But thank you mommies for all your opinions !! @anmlopez, @brendabravo93, @goodjourney, @jade2017, @morganmommy79, @poodie87, @proudmommy_0320,
If it's something you want to do then definitely do it while he's younger because won't remember. The dr said my baby didn't even cry through it and the healing process hurt me more than him lol. I wouldn't wait but if it's something you don't want to do then stick to your guns and don't do it. Completely up to you love but don't wait because you don't want him to go through the pain because he won't remember anything
I don't think it is a necessity. just like you have to teach your daughter how to clean her vagina, you have to teach your son how to clean his penis. people say if you don't he will have disease, yes if he doesn't clean properly which is a matter of being taught. but its up to you
It's best to do it while he's a baby because as he gets older it can affect his love life and future relationships because that extra skin is extremely nasty looking especially as they get older. I can't tell you what to do when it comes to your child but I would highly recommend you to get the procedure done for his sake @nani720
I opted for circumcision with my son because his uncle had to have it done in his 30's and it was very painful for him and embarrassing. I cried when they took my son out to have him circumcised because I heard him crying and it looked so painful for days. I cried and cried. It's not necessary, more of a religious thing or personal choice. My husband isn't circumcised and he's never had any trouble. Just have to teach your son to pull the skin back and keep it clean if you choose not to.
I'm all for Circumcision nothing against those who are against it but I feel it's necessary plus cleaner for them and I rather them endure it as a baby rather than later in life when it will hurt more. I have a cousin that had to experience later in his life adult life and he complained about how much it hurt and he was down for some time
My husband and I both are for circumcision, just to make his life easier later on. My husband says that its important for a "man" and that its cleaner etc. Nothing against moms that choose not to because at first I didnt want to do it, but now I do. @nani720
I circumcised my son. I felt bad but honestly he was fine after! He didn't even act like it bothered him and when they first brought him back he was happy lol. And it just makes it so much easier for them when they are older and with cleaning it. It's honestly your choice but being that little they won't ever remember it.
