I'm not a circ-hater (I had a partial circumcision a couple of years back and am very happy - as before I had a non-functioning and painful foreksin). However, I don't think you need to seek encouragement to make a decision. It is your business and your decision. The majority of people who have concerns on this subject are mostly anti-circ while only a few are pro and others who, like me, are just on the fence and of no opinion when it comes to the issue of routine circ of kids. In saying that though, if you still feel you need encouragement or want some less hysterical input which will make you feel better about your decision then you could try Yahoo Groups. There are several groups there that have soon-to-be parents discussing the topic. There is also a forum here for soon-to-be parents to discuss the pros and cons and beliefs.

Hope this helps.
