Ooooh man. My best wishes and healing thoughts to the Tinkleberry. Brings back memories.
When the Man-Cub™ was 10 months old, we took him to a urologist. I was pushing for him to have a circumcision. ( he was adopted at 6 mo., uncirc’d ). Urologist asked if he’d ever had any UTI’s, and we said yeah. When he was a month old, before we got him. Urologist runs a normal ultrasound and comes back into the room where we’re waiting.
** The Man-Cub** ™ has two different congenital defects, one in each kidney. Who knew? Thank goodness I wanted my kid cut ! He had major surgery to ( successfully ) resolve one issue, the other one he slowly grew out of. And yeah, he got cut while under general for the kidney surgery.
It’s very frightening stuff, and it sounds like you handled it very well. Please let us know how he does? ( And, if you wait till he’s 13, you can tell us how his Bar Mitzvah went as well ! ;j )
I hadn’t intended to have the first one circumcised at all, but it was a medical necessity for him. He was born with a condition called hypospadias (I think I spelled that right) that meant he was peeing out the side of his penis, rather than the end. They had to build him a urethra and sort of rebuild part of his penis, using tissue from his abdomen. If he hadn’t had that surgery, he’d never be able to have sex or father children of his own, and he would most likely have developed severe kidney problems.
With the second, his dad wanted him circumcised for religious reasons. I can respect that, so I went along with it. I was just so freaked out by the experience with the first one that I could barely handle a diaper change for the first few days with the second one.
Tinkleberry has the most famous penis on the Dope. Get better soon, you have dozens, nay, thousands of people wishing you and your little bits a speedy recovery.
Tinkleberry has a set of purple twigs and berries right now, but is well on his way to a happy set of wedding tackle.
Thanks for everyone’s support and good wishes.
Next time, we’re using a mohel. ;j Which is what I wanted in the first place. And now DrLoveGun agrees. As he said, “This sort of stuff doesn’t happen when the Jews do it!”
My son’s cock will make a jew out of his daddy yet!
You know, you really ought to print and save these Tinkleberry threads. It’ll give you some great material to embarrass him with when he brings his first SO home to meet you.
It’s only the seriously ultraorthodox that still do the “suck” method. And no, we are not orthodox. I am conservative, which is the grumbling medium between orthodox and reform.
There will be no sucking of my son’s nibblies until he is over 18 and fully consenting.
