<<An interesting medical point - in the days of Abraham who was  wise enough 
to 
know that eight days was the optimum time for circumcision  because the 
baby`s blood-clotting mechanism is at its peak for the first  time since the 
birth? - nobody gave Vit. K. to newborns  then.>>
 
God also knew that Americans and  epidurals would be invented in later years, 
and by 8 days the effect of the  medication would be worn off and baby boys 
would be amenable to breastfeeding  after the circ.
