[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My son didn't seem to have any serious pain afterwards, nor did he seem at all uncomfortable in the days afterwards. the whole thing healed perfectly well, without a peep from him. Just my 2 cents on the effect on the child.

I'm also a ped and have seen about 100 of these in my training. Some kids cried in pain and some fell asleep (all had sucrose, pacifiers, and/or pain meds). all were pretty much fine when they went back to their moms.[/quote]

Quiet does not equal fine.  "Falling asleep" can be shock.[/quote]

:roll:Oh yes, so when babies are sleeping they are in shock.  I was in the hospital when both of my nephews were circumcized years ago.  They went out of the room for no longer than 15-20 minutes, came back all swaddled, looked around and were calm as can be.  They are both about middle school now and are amazing kids, well adjusted, well liked, great atheletes and awesome in school.  Sorry, as much as you want to believe they were "in shock" they just weren't.  Don't make up stuff that isn't so.  And this is coming from someone who isn't pro or con circumcision.  I believe each family should do what's best for them.[/quote]
