I really have a hard time changing diapers after a bris, so my DH does it. I think it's a great way to keep Dad involved. |
That sounds nice, but many husbands are not hanging around waiting to change diapers every two hours  Although certainly when he is available it seems like a good idea.

It's in reality not sucha big deal, just put bacitracin on a gauze, put it on the wound, and then puton the diaper.

With going away, my brissin were either yom Tov or late. So I did all 4 diaper duties. No big deal at all. One mohel even told me to just squirt the a & d right into the bris. No gauze. And of course only sponge bathing.

When I peeked a little into the diaper before changing it (first one after the bris), I burst out crying and ran to my neighbor who had 7 boys ka"h and asked her if she would do the first one. After that I was okay. Used lots of cream and gauze and after a couple of days it was already looking much better. (For the first couple of days, whenever he urinated it made him cry with a high-pitched distress sound that made my heart break.)

LET THE MOHEL CHANGE THE FIRST DIAPER,
EVEN IF YOU HAVE TO WAKE THE BABY UP.
I can't stress this enough.
after the first change its not that bad.
Gently change the gauze.
I agree that it's much easier than a squirming toddler, by far.
