Exercise rooming in option, if available. Stick post-its marked NO CIRCUMCISION
on your son's bassinet or crib. Keep your son in the sight of one parent or other trusted bodyguard at all times. Be aware that your newborn child is likely to be examined by a pediatrician or other physician while in hospital.
Be prepared for the fact that you may be repeatedly pressured to sign a consent form by doctor and/or hospital staff. This is a psychological tactic designed to break down your resistance.
If you and your son are healthy the best environment is that of your own home where you can fully enjoy the presence of your new intact baby son without concern for hospital-spread infections, errors, forcible foreskin retraction, or wrongful circumcision. If you have given birth in a hospital, try to return home as soon as possible.
