Not ANOTHER circumcision question?!?

My insurance will not cover it for my son. I like you see no reason to mutilate my new born babies parts so I will not be allowing them to circumcise him. I am on a payment plan for the difference that my insurance don't pay for my doctors apts and for the birth and they automatically charge me for a circumcision just in case I change my mind this way everything is paid for by the time the baby is here and then I will be reimbursed the overage I pay like the circumcision. The circumcision at the hospital I will be going to, In Ohio, it costs 186 dollars for it. If you husband still wants the baby to be circumcised after you talk to the pediatrician I would sit down with him and see if he will read up on the internet research that you looked into and show him all the problems that can be caused with it. Yes you could circumcise and not have problems but you could circumcise and have tons of problems. I used to work at a day care prior to getting pregnant. There was a boy there he was 5 and had been through 3 correctional surgeries from the time he was 2-5 because of problems with the circumcision he had at birth. I felt so sorry for him he was always in pain and having problems and that right there was my choice not to get my son circumcised and my husband never was so easily enough we agreed we wouldn't be doing that.
