Not doin it can create problems later on.  Its goin to b more painful. My son was fine the next day, during it was horrible but little boys aren't too clean. He won't remember it so it won't b traumatic. He could get teased for his penis wearing a turtle neck. And it would hurt a lot more later then it would now.

I am because his dad is circumsized and it's a short healing process for something that will in my opinion be better in the long run.
Since my boyfriend is circumsized we wouldn't know how to teach him to clean the skin or any of that

Im having a son and hubby and i wont be circumcising either.

They say its for heigene, but my husband isnt circumsized and he says hes never had a problem, also that extra skin helps to protect the head of the penis and theres more sensation there when not circumsized.

Circumcision comes down to your preference, but you also have to take into account that it aids in helping keep them cleaner down there. Young boys who are uncircumcised are at a greater risk for infections and UTIs. Also, if he someday decides in the future to go through with it, the healing process is much more painful and traumatic to the tissue.
