Hi I’m 19 and circumcised 2 weeks ago was just wondering how long to wait to masturbate as it’s so hard not to. Also I’ve heard I’m suppose to use lube when I do any ideas of what lube to use? Like Vaseline or baby oil?

Hi, I waited until the stitches were out. I think it was after 2 weeks or so. But you must be very careful and not pulling too much on the shaft skin. Just working the head and especially the rim. I wouldn't recommand vaseline or babyoil since they are both mineral based. I use mostly coconut oil.
I'm now 6 weeks post op. So hard not to wank or have sex. I lasted until day 10 then had to have a gentle jerk. As long as you are gentle you'll be fine. If you feel any pain though you should stop and leave it longer. I started having sex again at exactly 4 weeks. Feels so different. Absolutely amazing! My sex drive has gone through the roof. Can't leave it alone! As far as lube goes I use loads when wanking but don't need much during sex as I normally make her wet before we get to that stage. Normal water based lube is best. You can buy from chemist and most big supermarkets. Enjoy!
Nature will guide you. Don't be impatient. You should masturbate only when you're sexually aroused. Well Vaseline can do, but the best lube will be your partner's vaginal fluid when you actually do intercourse with a female, provided she is also sexually excited.
Once your stitches have dissolved and you feel comfortable when handling your penis, you can try masturbation. If your experience is anything like mine you'll find that your permanently exposed glans is extremely sensitive to any touch, and this will make you ejaculate almost too fast! But make the best of it because this heightened sensitivity will eventually disappear.
As for using lube, do so if you wish but I have never found it helpful - quite the opposite in fact! Using lube makes my fingers slip and slide when masturbating when I really need to take a firm grip.
But we're all different and no two penises are identical either!
