How do I circumcise my baby boy?

You're probably going to need a Pediatric Urologist -- your Pediatrician should be able to recommend someone. 

If not, you could contact Uroclínica da Bahia, and see whether they can help you, here:

Hello,

It is a pleasure to be here.

Hi, I don't mean to offend and I know it's not your question but ... is there some reason why you'd want to do this, other than "In our culture we do this?". I'm honestly curious.

There's probably a reason why it's not done here, and why it was recommended to do it "informally" (whatever that means). In my culture we do this also (I and everyone I grew up with is circumcised) but I would never do this to my children.

I'm originally from Scandinavia, virtually no such thing as circumcision there. Thank you God

 And I, on the other hand, was born in the US at a time when male babies were circumcised immediately on delivery as a matter of course, so I've never missed what I never knew I had.

Also wanting to respect their culture, but to me it's straight up genital mutilation, which again can be pushed under a "cultural" or "religion" carpet. It's not something I ever thought to look up about Brazil, but it does make me a little happier knowing its apparently not that easy to have it performed here. Again, no disrespect to the OP for asking, but I do feel sorry for any child that has this mutilation done against their will.

This should be with you and the urologist, not on a forum. UTI's can occur 3 to 1. As said, find a urologist and weigh the pros and cons.
