A tip: pick a Ped from a different country!

post #1 of 2
Thread Starter 
I don't post here much at all and this may have been covered, but I wanted to share something I have learned: if you can find a ped from a country/culture where circing isn't the norm it can be really nice Our ped has intact sons and her penis checks consist of peeking in DSs diaper. They have do-not-retract info in the bathrooms etc. I think there may be a difference between knowing something intellectually (don't retract) and knowing something at a deeper level (intact penises are normal). We have enjoyed our ped on most issues, (breastfeeding, no growth-chart pressure) but we do get vax lectures. I don't mind a lecture so it's worth it to me.
Just my 2 cents.

I am glad you found a good ped. You are correct in that many Dr's from non circing countries are more up to date/used to the intact penis. But you do still have to be on your toes with them since a few have taken medical courses in the USA and learn not so good info.
