I've had it for years. Then I was diagnosed with Type 2 Diabetes. I tried changing my diet to suit the diabetes - low carbs, whole wheats, leafy greens - and my IBS flared up so badly. It was bad before I started taking my metformin/glucofage but it got increasingly worse when I changed my diet for the diabetes.
Newborns are also coated with a thick, pasty, white material called vernix caseosa (made up of the fetus' shed skin cells and skin gland secretions), most of which will be washed off during the baby's first bath.
Newborn circumcision (removal of the skin, which covers the head of the penis) is performed for religious, social and cultural reasons. There is no absolute medical indication for this procedure. If you choose to have your baby circumcised, you may wish to hold and comfort him immediately after the procedure.
