Non circumcision care
This idea popped into my head based on an earlier post. So, I'm American and most men in the US are circumcised. No one in my family knows anything about caring for a little boy baby or child's uncircumcised penis. And my boyfriend, even though he's Irish, had to get his circumcised for medical reasons when he was 7 so he has no idea how to care for our baby's penis if we have a boy. Can anyone tell me if we need to do anything to keep our kid healthy? Thanks!
Intact boys are super easy to care for! Just wipe down like a finger and never retract since at birth the foreskin is adhered to the penis like a fingernail to the fingernail bed. Many nurses and doctors don't know proper intact care, however, so never let your son out of your sight since many believe forced retraction to be necessary.
Thanks! There is soooo much misinformation circulating from the USA on subject it was making me nervous!!!
I've a little boy and don't do anything other than use baby wipes and wash in the bath, the mid wife in the hospital will show u how to change nappy and bath if you ask and your unsure about anything don't be afraid to ask the nurse/midwife or your public health nurse who will visit u when come home from hospital, I have to say I found support great I was really afraid of the belly button peg where the umbilical cord was attached, I got nurse to check several times ???

As we laid our precious baby boy down to sleep, our hearts ached. We still have questions and don't understand why this happened to our sweet innocent baby boy. What we do know is one thing. We are LOVED! God has surrounded us with gentle hands of comfort to help us get through such a hard time in our lives. We couldn't be anymore grateful for the friends and family we have. Baby Dakota is safe and sound in the arms of our Heavenly Father. He had a purpose so great that we can't even begin wrap...
need suggestions....
So at work we have a drink thief. Any time we put a drink in the fridge it disappears. I swear I know who it is. So far he's taken drinks from everyone that works in the office, we even put a sign to not take anything you didn't pay for and wrote our names on the drinks. The person I think is taking them works out of the office so we never get to see who is drinking them.
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.
how many time a day do i put vaseline on my boys penis after being circumcised ?
Thewholenetwork.org has a lot of great info and also you can order little bands for your baby that say "don't retract" for when you're in the hospital :)
