Please schedule the baby’s feedings so that he will be ready for a feeding after the Bris. 
Instructions for the care of the baby after his Bris will be given to you by the mohel on the day of the Bris.

It is recommended to contact the mohel the day before the Bris.
​Please do not hesitate to call if you have any questions or concerns.

The first 4 Days:

• Change the 3x3 gauze pad with Petroleum Jelly at every diaper change.

DO NOT pull it off with force. If it does not come off readily, wait until the next diaper change.

• The Mohel will return the day after the Bris to remove the other bandages.

DO NOT attempt to remove the bandages on your own unless otherwise instructed.
​

• After all bandages have been removed by the Mohel, continue to cover the affected area for the next 3 days.

• ​After day #4 (provided the umbilical cord has fallen off and the area is dry ) give the baby a bath 

Use mild soap in warm water. This will promote the healing process.
​Should some area still look affected, apply some Petroleum Jelly (without pad) to the area.
