Today I found out that my nephew was circumcised

[~Megan~]

and not only that he appears to have a buried penis.

I guess I was kind of expecting it so it didn't hit me as hard as I thought it would. I'm just trying not to think about it in detail or I will cry.

All 4 of my nephews (2 that I'm very close to) are circumcised and if I let myself think about it, it will make me cry. I just can't dwell on it. I used to - and it was driving me crazy. So, I made a concerted effort to concentrate on newborns and educating moms who haven't circ'ed yet in hopes to change minds. And not wallow in my defeats.

Sorry to hear it - hugs to you!

Oh, bummer. I know you tried so hard.

[hummingbear]

Oh so sorry.

Only one of mine is intact( and his mom has read Motherng for years) and it makes me sad for the others..so sorry about this....

Isn't the buried penis the weirdest, most shudder-inducing thing? A friend of mine has a 4-month-old son whose penis resembles nothing so much as a second belly-button.

My heart just jumped out of my chest when I first saw it. I suppose they think nothing is wrong.
