On surfing the web, checking out information and advice given out by 'mothering' websites and the feedback from mothers on the subject of circumcision.
The 'massive brainwashing' in the US has worked very well.
Mother referring to her son's mutilated, circumcised penis, as looking 'normal' now.
'Botched Circumcisions' have a new, more 'palatable' term - "recircumcising"...!!!
Even though the boy had been circumcised, the mothers are still saying that they had to pull back the foreskin to see the glans.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Here are some Mothers' responses in after-care of son's mutilated penises.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
My son's penis (circumcised) has gone from being out to being inverted.
Question - Is it normal?
My son is circumcised and is now 3 months.
As of 3 weeks ago his penis is completely covered and I have to pull his foreskin back to even see his penis.
Was his circumcision done wrong?
His penis went from looking normal and being out to looking like something is wrong with it because it is inverted.
Is this normal?
### My son was recircumsized at age 2.
His penis head never looked like it was out far enough, so when he was 2 years old, I asked my doctor if his penis looked right and she said he needed to be recircumsized.
He had the surgery (they completely knock them out) and it all turned out okay.
When he was having the surgery, the nurse said that they do that same surgery all day, everyday.

### OK,I had Xactly the same situation, having to pull the foreskin back to see his penis so when changing/bathing him I could take a wipee & clean around it to keep good hygiene... sound familiar?
Had his circum done b4 we left hosp, I just kept thinking this doesnt look right, my other sons never looked like that and no offense intended here towards your cutie patootie but my little one was and kinda is my chunky monkey,so we go to his ped dr visit (this was at the 4 months visit).
So I asked,she immediately said "Its perfectly fine, the circum was done right he just has a little fatty pocket around that area that, FOR NOW, is just pushing the foreskin up around his penis..and to just make sure during changing/bathing to pull that back to ensure clean, and as he grows, becomes more mobile his fat will go down making foreskin recede back making his private look normal.
From that day till now @ 1 yr old, he has lost that fatty pocket around that area and looks normal. Hope this helps.
(Blog.Note: News to me... I didn't know that circumcised babies had foreskins!!??)
### Wow can I relate. Our son was circumsized right after birth and after bringing him home, and taking care of it, the foreskin was still over the head of the penis.
I would pull back the skin, clean it, and make sure everything looked okay. There was almost always a white film under the skin.
Well, last July around his 2nd birthday, I had to take him to a pediatric urologist because the foreskin started attaching to the base of the head and I couldn't pull it back to clean (it would hurt him).
His pediatrician had told me that it would start retracting as he got thinner, but it didn't.
So, the urologist said we had three options: leave it alone and let him have problems as he got older peeing and with erections, get some Rx cream to apply to the base of the head to dissolve the adhesions, or have surgery to remove adhesions and heal all problems.
We chose surgery.
It was the best thing we ever decided, though very hard to decide.
Took 3 days to heal and everything looks perfect.

### I am going through the exact same issue with my son!
We were just at the doctor for his 6 month check up on the first and she was concerned.
She said the foreskin had started to reconnect to the head and she pulled it apart a little, which made it bleed.
My husband and I were supposed to continue to pull at it everyday until it separated again.
We were both having a hard time because he was so uncomfortable and we could not bear to hurt him.
We went back to the doctor today for some help and to have her check it again. She prescribed a steriod cream to put on it twice a day and to clean and pull it back every time we change his diaper.
We will have to us the steriod for a month, then go back in for another check! She is pretty sure the cream will help, if it doesn't then we will have to go in to see a specialist!
I would definitely have your doctor check it out before it gets too far along!
I wish they would have talked to us a more about how to take care of it before now!

### Wow I am so glad my girlfriend sent me this link.
I am having or have had the same problen with my sons penis.
We had him circumsized while we were in the hospital after he was born.
About a month later he didnt look like he was circumsized and I asked my doc about it.
She had said hopefully he will grow into it and to pull it back.
My mom on the other hand who had a son told me that there shouldnt be any skin at all if it were done right in the first place.
My son is 1 now and we were just seen by the Urologist and it turns out it wasnt done right or not enough was taken off at birth.
So now my poor lil guy has to have surgery to remove the excess skin.
I really dont know why so many people are having this problem but it sucks that the doctors arent doing something better to insure these poor kids don't have to go through this twice.
I feel so bad and hurt knowing that my son is going to be in pain but I have to do it because it looks deformed now. :( Good luck ladies.
