    When DS1 had his foreskin removed there was no anaesthetic but I'm now assuming a local is put in these days. Still, a needle has to be inserted and that is pain enough that no-one would ever want to endure... adult, child or newborn.
    .
    Just wanted to add that there is no needles involved at all with the plasit bell procedure.... there is a numbing cream that goes on 2 hours before with a reapplication 1 hour before... they stretch the foreskin over the plasti bell and tie a string around the end.... then it falls off
    Totally agree with the part about the bible too!! its taken out of preportion big time hey!!
    I just wanted my boy to look like his dad and the rest of his family... if DH wasnt.. then DS wouldnt have been either....
    Each to thier own

    Boy what a topic!! he he he :P

    I think it depends where you go as Jesse had a local needle, before having the plastibell, not the numbing cream and that was only in October last year.
