How long did it take for your son's circumcision to heal?

Question

I hear the average is 7 - 10 days but interested  to see which end it falls closer to. Also, any tips/tricks for diaper changes / applying jelly? It's quite the task!!

Answer

I think it was about a week for my son. We had the hardest time with the ointment until a nurse told us to just put some of the diaper itself where it will touch. It was so much easier that way!
