With all the discussion on circumcision and breastfeeding, I would hope
that those of you in a hospital setting and/or with ready access to
out-patient facility would consider SERIOUSLY doing a study of mothers
whose sons are circ-ed and comparing them to those whose sons are left
intact. It pains me to think that all the information shared here will
simply remain in the category of "folklore" or "anecdote" and thus not be
given the time of day by those in a position to change policies re: timing
of this procedure.
Lest you dismiss such a study as not possible, let's thinka bout ways it
COULD be done.
