When is the Bris?


Question:

If a baby is born on a Tuesday before sundown, what day is the bris?



AskTheRabbi.org answered:

The following Tuesday, which is the eighth day from birth. A qualified Mohel should check the newborn before performing the bris to make sure there are no health issues that would require delaying the bris. It can be done any time that Tuesday before sunset, but it is best to do it in the morning if possible.

Mazal tov to the entire family!
