Intact boy question  

post #1 of 4
Thread Starter 
This is my 4th boy but first one who wasnt circ'd ( no flames please it was something I left up to their fathers)

Since he is the only baby ( or boy) I have ever seen that isnt circ'd Im not sure what its supposed to look like.

Is the glands supposed to peak out? Sometimes its almost completely covered by his forskin but the hole is clearly visable at all his diaper changes. He has never been retracted and I wash it like I would his ear lobes he grins and giggles . Its not red. Just wondering if thats what its supposed to do ( hes 9 weeks ) It looks very similar to my other boys ( they have very loose circs)
Ive tried to google pictures but I either get adult men or porn sites

This page may help you.

The length of the foreskin varies amongst babies and adults.

He probably just has a short foreskin. Sounds completely normal to me. However if you notice it ever comes back over the glans the entire way, just make sure you move it back into place.

Now I say this as a precaution but I don't really think it happens often - my son is almost 4 and I've never had to do it.
