Circumcising late

I did! At first I was so worried because they obviously need to put them to sleep for it but it went really well and he recovered quickly! He’s now 2.5 and doing just fine 🙂

My son was also in the NICU he was 2 weeks when it was safe to do it, before going home. It’s healed perfectly now and we’re glad we chose to do it! Our doctor said the worst part of it was getting it numbed and then they feeling nothing after. They’re are nurses comforting them as well throughout the process. Hope this helps :)

I just had my baby circumcised. He was 14 months old and was also in the NICU. The surgery went well. He managed the pain very well. In fact, the same day after he came home from surgery, he was bouncing and dancing and crawling around like nothing happened. I was shocked. But I also gave him pain meds for 3 days after. He's nicely healed up now.

@Olivia our NICU would not do it and I was so upset! They were in the NICU until almost 2 months old and no one told us anything about the circumcision process no matter how many times I asked. I had to get in touch with a urologist when they got home and they said since they waited to long we have to wait until around a year. I have been so worried and upset about it!

@Kimoya I have been so worried about them being put to sleep and being born premies! That eases my anxiety so much!!

@Bella oh trust me I totally understand. I kept putting off the surgery because I was having panic attacks about it and then husband had enough of my procrastination. Thing is, when he was in the NICU, I mentioned circumcision and they said because he was preemie, they cannot do it there and that I had to wait. But they never told me how long to wait or who to reach out to or anything. So around 4 months I called a urologist through research and they said he's past the stage where they could just numb the area. And that now we would have to wait till he's about 1 year old and then he would have to be put under. I was pissed. But he had his surgery this past September and he did great. I was in the waiting area pacing like a crazy person lol.

@Kimoya that’s exactly what happened to me!! The only thing they would say was they where to young and would not answer any follow up questions when I got them in the doctor after weeks of being told to call so many people and getting the runaround at 4 months and they told me I had to wait I called the NICU yelling at them for not informing me on anything I was so mad😂💀

@Bella oh woooow so it happened to both of us. Smh. I'm so sorry! The NICU people need to get it together. They are slacking.
