@slewis1526, you're welcome!! I'm glad everything was fine, I always worried with both of my boys too

@tyoungdeer thank you! He had his first appointment with our pediatrician this morning and he said it was just the plastic thing coming off..put my mind at ease for sure.

Then it should be normal for the ring to start coming off and the redness and swelling is fine, just make sure that the ring isn't going backwards.. That happened with my son and they had to cut the ring off 😕 He was fine when he went to bed and the next morning his ring had started to slide backwards it was terrible for him!! Not to mention he wasn't circumcised till later on so he completely freaked out 😥

@tyoungdeer a week ago today

Hopefully that'll help some!

Just make sure you can still see the plastic

Yeah very normal especially the first few days, when did he get it done?

@tyoungdeer is the swelling around it normall

If you got the plastibell circumcision that's completely normal!

No just gauze and said watch for bleeding

Hmmmm ... With my two sons they always gave me a tube of petroleum jelly that you put on the tip of his penis for the swelling and pain ... Did they put anything on it on the hospital? @slewis1526

@stephaniemcmath93 they told me not to put anything on it but gauze

Yes that's normal because circumcision is like a mini surgery it'll clear up keep putting the petroleum jelly on it ... They gave you that right? @slewis1526

Take this advice but follow your instincts Mommy you got this. So it will be really red for some time just be sure no pus -sign of infection- also put slabs of A&D on it after every change of diaper the last thing you want is for it to stick to diaper 😰. If you are talking about a white veil-ish looking thing that is supposed to disappear eventually. Again i say this in support but you should always consult your pediatrician if you feel like something is off. In the meantime relax mommy i think he is ok.
