Testicle surgery

[KattieSkow]

So my little boy has to have surgery on Oct. 13. Next Tuesday! Its because one of his testicles hasn't dropped yet. Its connected to a hernia in the middle of his lower tummy. So they have to go in and cut it away from the hernia and permanently drop it. I asked the doctor all kinds of questions. I asked how much will it hurt after. The doctor said "I will literally give him numb nuts" But it makes me wonder unless their child has gone through this do they really know all the little pains that they go through?

Has any of you moms gone through his with your little boy? How was the after care? Was your son in a lot of pain? How long before he got back to his normal self? Jackson is my first baby, and I don't want him to be in any pain. But I would rather get the surgery done for so many different reasons. So please give me your advice. Its very much appreciated.

Hi Kattie,

I was just checking to see how your little guy is doing after his surgery? I hope he is healing well and quickly and can get back to normal playing soon. :)
