Thanks for the addition to the discussion. Just wondering - was a family member in the room when you were circumcised? I’m just trying to figure out if the report of you sleeping through the circumcision was initially given by a doctor/nurse and then repeated by family, or if a family member witnessed it firsthand. (Simply because, anecdotally, even when the baby has screamed their head off, the doctor/nurse will tell the parents that they slept through it, so as not to distress the parents)
I’ve also heard the hypothesis that babies will go into shock much earlier than adults and will therefore be silent, or start choking / having a seizure silently, during traumatic surgery.
