I'm having a boy and he will most certainly be cercumsized I do not want him to end up how my ex husband was all the time complaining how it hurt him if the skin pulled back too far so sex wasnt always enjoyable for him and I dont want my lil boy going through that plus when they get older and their not cercumsized and want to ve it cost a lot to get done and I dont wanna put my boy througb that kind of financial burden just to get his penis cercumsized

I've had both of my sons done it only hurt for a day and they got Tylenol every 4 hours it does take a week to heal up completely but both of my boys have had nothing wrong with theirs I recommend getting it done just because I personally think it's cleaner

I'm having my baby boy circumcised! My husband isn't circumcised an he also wants our boy circumcised.. less chance of an infection. An don't worry about it hurting him, he won't remember it when he gets older. An the sooner it's done the better :) I'm having my baby's done before we leave the hospital.. an they're not in pain for days! My cousin had her baby boy in December an she said his healed within a day or so. An I asked her if he cried when she put the cream stuff on there an she said no. :)

I'm having a boy and will definitley be circumcising. The father is circumcised and wants his boys to be as well.

First off most of the guys I've been with are not circumsized and non of them have had infections or given me one. I've been with my be for almost 4 years and before that my ex husband for 3 both were not and they were fine had have no issues. I decided not to do it to my first and I won't do it for this one if its a boy. I think if you're born with it who am I to take it away if it isn't life threatening or dangerous. If one day my son says mom I want it done fine I'll support it but I've never heard a guy complain. Its a waste to me.

I recommend it because it causes yeast infections for girls. No one has time for that

I had it done to my first boy but not my second. After watching how much it hurt for days I did lots of research and decided against it for the next. If he wants it done when he gets older I will support Hus decision but so many men say they wish they had not had the decision made for them. I also talked to men who had it done as adults and it was not a big deal but at least they had a choice.
