"It still doesn't look like I wanted it to"

That is disgusting. Why does she want HIS penis to look how SHE wants it. It's HIS PENIS....LEAVE IT ALONE. That poor baby

I can't believe she did that! Is that legal? It can't be legal! I really feel bad for him... (..it should be illegal, mutilating him like that is just wrong)

So sorry for your nephew

When is the best time to "fix" adhesions that involve the scar line?

UGH...I was talking to a woman on a mainstream breastfeeding board and she was complaining about her son's circ...she said, "it looks so gross, they left HALF the foreskin..it still covers halfway." She too said they didn't cut off enough. Probably if she "thought they could do it again" she would. :

So my first thought when I saw the title of this post was "how many stitches did it take to sew her up and when do they think she'll be out of the hospital?"

You're a better woman than I am to not say "I told you so." And let her have it. When you told her about the complications from circ did she think "Oh but not my son. He is going to have a lovely circumcision and look like this photo I saw in Playgirl once"

Because they are f**king idiots? Nuts? In desperate need of mental health care? Have bizzare past issues with men that they feel the need to force onto their sons? Thats all I can come up with.

This one is extra disturbing to me since this woman was INFORMED. If you don't know thats one thing. The way our culture is in North America you may not even know that you should look into it. But she knew. Estelle told her and she chose to ignore it because its not what she wanted. She didn't do what she thought was best for her baby she did what suited her best. That's sick.

Before she takes him in for his third hack job two words for her..."Michael Jackson". His nose could be your son's penis.

So sorry you are having to witness this Estelle. If there is talk of a third circ I think you should call CPS. There is obviously something wrong here.

I don't think she will do it again until it 'has' to be done because of the scar line adhering. I gently tried to tell her she needs to be stretching it, trying to break up those adhesions, but she told me that there was nothing wrong with it that it's just ugly and stretching it ain't gonna do anything and if it has to be done again, who cares?
MAYBE YOUR SON?!?!

I'm just SO ANGRY because they got pregnant easily and (could) have this beautiful healthy baby and they do THIS!? And we tried for years to have Charlie and the baby we have is sick so much and we still cherish him and do everything in our power to make him happy and keep him healthy. It's not right. I know a hundred people who would take that baby in today and love him.
I can't write it off as PPD anymore. I don't know what it is. I know she has major sexual issues but I didn't think that sculpting her son's body into *her* vision of a nice penis was part of that.
She was TOTALLY informed. And she tried to stop her husband from doing it in the beginning, but by the end she was on board with it because it was easier than arguing. And now they've messed it up (the first time by leaving 'too much' and the second time by doing it uneven) and she's made it worse by not taking care of the wound and so he IS messed up and it IS ugly. But she'll defend it to the grave and cut any kid they have. Maybe next time though she'll have learned her lesson and she'll just make a clay sculpture to give to the 'doctor' when it's done, so he can make sure to get it 'right' the first time.
