What is the aftercare for circumcision?
Following infant circumcision, vaseline and a gauze pad are put on the penis after a circumcision. This covering protects it from pee and from rubbing against the diaper. * During the first 24 hours, check your baby's penis for bleeding every 3 to 4 hours. Change the Vaseline and gauze pad every time you check for bleeding. * After the first 24 hours, change the Vaseline and gauze pad every time you change your baby's diaper. Vaseline and gauze pads should be used for 1 to 3 more days. * The amount of Vaseline you use should be about the size of a dollar coin ("a loonie"). * If the gauze pad sticks to the penis, do not pull it off. Squeeze warm water over the gauze pad from a wet washcloth. This will soak the gauze pad off the penis. * Wash the area after your baby pees or poops. Squeeze warm water from a washcloth over the area. Gently pat dry. * In 2 to 3 days, the tip of your baby's penis will be covered with a sticky yellow substance. This substance is normal. Do not remove it. * The tip of your baby's penis will be a deep red color while it is healing. * The tip of your baby's penis should be fully healed in one week. It will have a pinkish color when it is healed. * Your baby may not want to eat after the circumcision. You can continue to offer a breast or bottle. He will begin to eat when he is ready. * Your baby may not pee for a number of hours after the circumcision. This is normal. * Blood around the penis is bright red and is soaking through the gauze pad onto the diaper. * Your baby has not peed for 24 hours after the circumcision.
