I just read this. Wow. Not only do you trust someone with cutting off a part of your son's body who clearly doesn't even care avout the pain your child goes through - you also don't have $150 to prevent your child from severe pain and trauma?! You shouldn't even be a mother. People like you make me sick to my stomach. I shouldn't have come back to DCUM. This disgusting circumcision practice in the US is just beyond me. Land of the free...sure...unless you're a helpless baby boy with clueless parents.


Excuse me? Now, I respect peoples opinions on why I shouldn't have circumcised my son, and even was weighing both sides, but when you say I shouldn't be a mom is where you crossed the fucking line. If that's the case than at least half(or more) of the moms reading this shouldn't be mothers, I'm not the only one on the planet that had her son circumcised you know? Money is tight and the economy sucks right now in our country, its obvious you live outside of the US, so you don't have a clue what its like right now. I didn't want to hurt my little boy, but I did what my boyfriend wanted, he knows more about this than I do, and personally I think it is for the best too and stand by his decision. Same thing when I vaccinate him, it hurts, but its for the best.

Op; don't listen to this person. My husband is a pediatrician and he votes to vaccinate and circumcise. Everyone does what is best for their family, and you are doing what is best for yours. People get very passipnate about a subject and they get angry and can hide in an anonymous forum. Don't let this person get to you. Our son is circumcised and I regret absolutely nothing.

I was in tears myself, but the nurse smiled and reassured me that he did fine and he just didn't like being strapped down. She said he missed his mommy too and that I should feed him as soon as possible. I never really heard the care advice she told me due to my son's crying and me being so emotional at the time. I changed one diaper on him so far and he screamed I feels so bad, I hope it's just the first day and he'll be fine afterwards.


What a messed up thing to do to your own child. You don't seriously believe the nurse who told you he was fine or do you? He didn't scream because he was strapped down. He screamed because someone cut off a part of his penis. With the penis being the most sensitive part of his body. He is in sever pain now. You have intentionally let someone harm your baby for nothing else than a cosmetic procedure. I am glad I grew up in Europe where people are more educated about circumcision. Nobody here gets it done unless it is medically necessary. And most certainly not without anesthesia and proper pain management.

Sure all the pro-circ parents will tell you it's fine. And it's easy to believe that since it's such a common thing to get done. But would you cut off a teenage boy's foreskin like that? Or an adult man's? Strapped down, no anesthesia, no pain management? Yet somehow people still believe it's fine to do to a completely helpless baby who doesn't even have the ability to comprehend what's being done to them. Disgusting nothing else.


You do realize that some adult men DO have to be circumcised because of complications from their uncircumcised penises??

Circumcision and vaccination are spoken of as similar by a pediatrician?!?

That's common in circ happy America, but it's incredibly rare everywhere else.

And yet, we are somehow the best and most powerful country in the world. Guess we're right!

Let's all let this post die so that anti-circ fanatic can stop.

We get your point! Half of us do what you do, half do the opposite. Relax.

There will be another thread in two weeks.

I did what my boyfriend wanted? Circ = vax? No, you are ill informed, uneducated, and subservient. If money is so tight that you can't afford pain relief before surgery for your son, and proceed anyway because you are scared to stand up to baby daddy, you are either a disgusting person or you should be seeking help from an abuse group.

I am surprised your insurance is covering the circ itself, to be honest, or maybe you managed to come up with that money somehow?

Nobody cares what you think.


You sure don't because I don't share your opinion. I can assure you the countless posters in this thread speaking up against circumcision care very much. But then they also care about their babies enough not to cut of a piece of their penises. You didn't care about that either so it's no surprise you don't care about me calling it what it is.


I have girls. I just want to make sure an awful person like you gets called out. You should be ashamed of yourself, talking to OP like that.


OP should be ashamed of herself, but she is clearly too stupid and gullible to have an original though. And anyone who believes "oh, he wailed for 10 minutes because he didn't like being strapped down but slicing off his foreskin didn't bother him" is an effing idiot.

I hate all these people who are so pro circ but can't just own up to the realities. You want to do it? Fine! Your choice. But don't kid yourself that it didn't hurt and try to justify it through lies.

At the time, I just let my husband decide and didn't put much more thought into it. But looking back, my feelings on it have evolved and I really regret doing this. The human body is perfect, your son is perfect. He will feel pain. Infants have the ability to feel pain. The fact that he won't remember it doesn't change how much it will hurt him.


You crazy lolxzzzzzz

If mothers watched what they do, few would allow it ever again. Unless it's a religious thing. Jewish, etc.
