my grandma gave me the best advise: buy some 4 x 4 gauzes. melt a container of vasoline in a pan of hot water. pour it over the stack of gauzes, so they are fully coated/saturated. Then at changing time you dont have to mess with smearing gloppy vasoline and getting it everywhere except where you want it. simply pull the next gauze off the stack, make a 'tee-pee' shape cone, and place it over the ....er, sore place/surgery site!
You can also do this with some anti-biotic lotion, I think, just don't get it too hot when you melt it.

He'll be fine, he won't remember it.
and you'll be fine. I cried and cried at my second son's (bad pediatrician, more pain than necessary, wouldn't listen to me, etc. etc.) but little guy healed right up and has never held it against me!

Think healing, healthy thoughts of love!
