yeah thats why i want it done as soon as possible after the 6 month mark i had a friend whos son needed a medical circumsism at 2 and he was not happy at all screaming trying to play with it and just not himself for awhile the poor little guy. and also the hospital is in fremantle which is not too far from us but will still take half an hour to get their for dh to come up or to bring kids up if he stays in hospital which i have stayed in hospital with DS1 when he had trouble breathing and i cried my eyes out like the whole time im such a sook for my kids.
