Circumcision

Making The Cut

This topic has been on my heart and mind in the last few days…I figured I would roll with it.  I am going to write about one of the “touchy” subjects today.  And no, I am not talking about "the cut" of an episiotomy today...

One of the topics we cover (albeit briefly) in our Bradley Method® class series is circumcision.  Today’s post will be short and sweet as I intend it to be more for you to think about and discuss with your partner, than for me to offer specific information or an opinion.
