Circumcisions!

Monday we had the day off, but Tuesday we watch two circumcisions! They numb the baby first and grab three clamps; the two clamps stop some of the circulation but the last clamp stops it all. Once you see the imprint of the last clamp they grab the scissor and cut where it left the imprint. It looks like it hurts them but it really doesn't. They grab the Gomco Circumcision Clamp and the post and bell are placed over the glans and the foreskin is pulled over the outside of the bell. Once they tighten the tool, they use a scalpel and go around scraping off the extra skin that is left over. They put two little packets of ointment so it doesn't rub against the diaper. The doctor says it takes six days to heal and it does hurt a little.
