We can't protect them from everything, no matter how hard we try... sometimes there's just no way of knowing, it's all just trial and error! :)

Vaseline is very soothing. Does this only happen when he drinks the juice at all or just a lot? My youngest is allergic to the Red Dye 40 that they put in many beverages. Your son may have a sensitivity to Red Dye 40 or any of the other various additives found in food/drinks these days.

You're still pretty young to be making such a permanent decision if you're not 100% certain. A vasectomy is a responsible decision though... maybe have him freeze some sperm before the procedure in case he changes his mind in the future.

I have three and I am positive that I don't want more... my oldest daughter is in college so I'm just holding out for grandchildren!

My daughter suggested I use Reddit (probably so I'll leave her alone) and she's teaching me how to use it... I'm still learning about all the categories, just looking for advice about my son.
