Me and DH were having a conversation a couple of nights ago about it.
We are not sure yet what we are having but DH says he would want a boy to be cirumcised. I'm not keen myself, When I was in hospital with my DD last time there was a little boy there who had been circumcised and it had gone wrong and got infected etc and I just cringed when his mum told me.
DH is of African origin so I can see why he would want to culturally, I'm sure my dad would have been because his mother is of Jewish descent but personally I don't have any reason and the thought makes me whince. DH also informed me I would have to take the baby because he would be at work!!!
He only wants it done by a professional Dr though.
Has anyone any experience of it and what are your views?
