is 7 months to old to have our son circumcised?

Question:

we are stuck on the issue of circumsition.We have both had experiences with forskins and now we have a son we dont want to see him go through what we have both seen ( Infections and circumsition at older age.) It is a very confusing time for young parents who keep getting different answers!

Answers:
do it asap. please think of his future and appearance.

I'm not gonna BS you. you should have got this done a week after giving birth.

thank goodness Your son is still under a year old. please get it done asap. Take extra extra care post the procedure. Take him to a specialist. A doc who ONLY does circumcisions. Not just a generic doc. Its worth it to deals with the pros.

I circumcised my little boy and I will admit i cried because i knew it was gonna hurt. He was a week old. I didn't stay in the room. I stayed in the lobby crying my heart out. His father stayed with him. His dad said he let out one large shirk was all. I cried more the doc said.

I wont BS you my best friend waited and got her son circumcised at 3 months and she said that her son cried for hours post the procedure.

Please talk to the doc and make sure you get enough baby Tylenol and numbing cream.

My little boy is a toddler now. His father and I have no regrets and know we did the best for our son.

Better to do it now than to put it off when it could become complicated.

I believe in it, 7 months is not to old my son had to wait because he was very little when he was born. The hard part will be finding a Dr who will perform the surgery. he will have to go under anesthetic which has risks but so does crossing the street. The younger the better but they also do them on adults.

They can give him something to help when they do it. Have a physician do it, and I wouldn't worry about a 7 year-old.

Better now than later, when problems arise. Same thing happened with our son, do it now, so they won't have to be taken out of school, and have to tell white lies to his buddies as to why they can't go out and play for a few days, they are also more aware of surgery and doctors, and it frightens them at an older age. Thankfully, ours went extremely well, but alot of anxiety on his part leading up to the surgery, and his fear that friends would find out. There is a reason why it is done at birth, get it done now. health reasons, and its just needs to be done, what where you thinking. better now than when he starts GYM class.

it's better you do it now. it's not too old. don't wait any longer.

no 7 months is not to old, i had mine done when i was in the fifth grade,when done at an older age the more painful it seems,seems to take longer to heal,not to mention the changing of the gause and bandages, do it now.

I don't think you should do it. If you clean the penis properly then there should never be a problem with having a forskin. Circumcision is done as a regular practice by doctors on newborns to charge the parents an extra amount so they can get a little richer at the expense of an individual that has no say in the matter. What would our society say if doctors started circumcising baby girls like they do the boys. Something to think about.
