Warm and fuzzy circumcision

In an effort to calm babies during circumcision, I wrap the infant from the waist up in one of the new, specially made "swaddling blankets," made with Velcro. I have found that the babies are calmer with the swaddling blanket than restraints, and it helps keep them warm!
