Melissa! I'm so glad to catch up with you. How have you and the new baby been?
We have been just wonderful!! Although it is hard being a new mom, I am just trying to do what is best for my son. Anyways, I heard you were pregnant?!!
Yes, I am. I was just about to tell you! Since you're a new mom, can I get your opinion on something?
Of course Monica! What is it that you want to ask?
What are your thoughts on circumcision? I have heard bad things about it.
Oh I would have to say the opposite. My husband and I were all for getting our baby boy circumcised. We did not even question our decision.
Okay so tell me a little more about it because I am skeptical.
We definitely wanted our little boy circumcised because it prevents so many infections that could happen later on in life like a urinary tract infection.
That infection does sounds pretty painful, but wont it hurt my baby really bad to get circumcised?
Many people are concerned about that...but it would be done at such a young age that he would not remember it
I have also heard that circumcision can cause bleeding and possibly infection. Is that true?
There is always risk when it comes to any procedure. We just felt like the risk was worth the reward. Thanks for chatting today. I hope I helped.
