My beautiful baby boy was born on december 16th, and he's absolutely perfect! For all my boy moms, how are we feeling about circumcision? I have an appointment set with his pediatrician, but I am 50/50 on it. I don't really see the point other than risk of infection is lower but high when you get it done and I guess...

I am not sure if it’s because I already have a 3 year old or perhaps since this second child is a boy or maybe hormones, but I am so sad. He’s already so big!
