When did you circumcise your baby?
If you DID NOT or DO NOT have a circumcised son DO NOT comment this post is not for you!

I did my last baby when he was in the hospital 1 day old.

Initially he was going to be circumcised at 1 day old while we were in the hospital, however at the time of the procedure they found he has a hypospadias. He has his reconstructive/circumcision procedure this coming Monday; he’s now 6 months.

My baby boy got circumcised at 6 weeks old x

They did it at the hospital on the second day of his life. My doctor and the pediatrician that came in said the earlier done the better so we had his done immediately. They let my husband be inside the room I’m not sure what kind of numbing medication they gave our son but my husband said he didn’t cry and it was a quick procedure!

He was 3 days old, and thats just because he was born on a friday right after the dr left for the weekend 😅

It was done when he was 1 day old and we were still in the hospital.

2 weeks old, wanted to wait 8 days because we did not give vitamin k

Our twins were in the NICU so we couldn’t do a bris on the 8th day like we’re supposed to in our religion. We waited until they were home for a month. It was clearly very painful even with the pain meds and quite traumatic for them so I’m not sure what a good age to do it is. I guess I’d say wait until they can make the decision themselves because it’s probably not worth all that pain to a baby.

I wasn't going to have him circumcised but ended up needing to due to some reoccurring infection he was having. Was circumcised at about 6 or 7 months

Waited approx 6 weeks, but mind you my baby was 6 weeks early so we wanted him to be full term at least

My first was 6-7 days old because they wouldn't do it while he was on a CPAP machine. My second was 2 days old, done before he was discharged after birth

My two brothers are both circumcised. The eldest got it done as a newborn & it went fine. My youngest brother had it done around 4/5 and it was hell

In the hospital, day 2

My baby was 4 weeks old, the doctor recommended we do it anytime before 8 weeks of age!

Two weeks old! The hospital tried to charge $500 cash only if we did it afterbirth so we went through our primary care physician

He was 2 days old. I had my son during Covid so they didn’t let us go in the room. But we watched through like an observation window, they numbed the area 2x to minimize discomfort. My baby sucked the pacifier and did not cry.

Literally just commenting to say I didn't/won't circumcise and we're not all judgey and mean lol xx ♥️

From my knowledge, the earlier the better but at the end of the day it's all the same regardless of when it's done, I'd personally wait until they're a little older than first few days (which is also so commonly done) but I really don't think the age matters x
