[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I would strongly prefer not to circumcise our baby if we have a son, however my husband feels strongly that we should (we are Jewish). We still haven't decided what we are going to do, but I'm just curious, if you were opposed to circumcising your son or had serious reservations about it, but went ahead with it anyway, how did you feel during and after the procedure? Did you have certain requirements for doing the procedure (hiring a mohel, insisting on being present with your baby, having your baby not strapped down, waiting some period of time before doing it, etc.) that made you feel more at peace with it? [b]Did you have lingering anger, resentment, guilt, regret, etc. afterwards, or was it just okay once it was done? [/b]Did your child experience any complications? I do not want this to devolve into a circumcision debate -- I'm very clear on what some people see as the pros and the cons, and am more looking for the specific experiences of those like myself who had concerns about circumcision but went ahead with it anyway. Thanks.[/quote] OP, here are 33 pages worth of stories from parents who circumcised their sons and wisht hey hadn't. not sure how many are Jewish. good luck with your decision. http://www.mothering.com/community/t/112410/if-you-regret-circumcising-your-son-s-please-post-here[/quote]
