Circumcision?

[HollySunshine]

So DS is a week old today and he got circumcised while in the hospital. He got it done Friday. Well his pee pee isn't sore and red anymore but I can't tell if the little ring has fallen off yet.

Anyone know how to tell?

I wouldn't worry about it at all...AND do NOT NOT NOT try and wipe the white "pus" looking stuff off around the tip...it's actually helping heal the area. We also kept ointment on the front of his diaper for about 3 weeks...to keep the tip from sticking to the diaper.

Did they do the plastibell or the other form?

Plastibell.

I haven't wiped it at all they said only dribble water on it. We were putting Vaseline on his diaper because of sticking but it isn't sticking anymore and isn't all red either

Then he is probably just fine...I have two boys and never "saw" the ring fall off or even in the diaper...

[Hope]

If you can't see the ring it probably fell off. I still have Ryley's.

What does the ring look like?

[Hope]

This really small clear plastic ring. It slowly moves from under the penis head, over the head, then falls off.

Hmm okay maybe I'll glance again next diaper change. About when did your sons fall off??

I'm to scared to closely inspect his peepee because well he's peed on us and himself already lol!!!

Did it look like it had anything on it when you had it done? I know when MDS had his done, they used a plastibell, but cut and quaterized it (not my decision), so there was just a scab looking thing
