Hello and WELCOME!!!! Congratulations!
: You will forever be so proud of your decision to keep your son intact.
Yes, that argument is pretty lame. I always tell parents that their son is far more likely to notice that daddy has hair down there than that he is missing his foreskin. Really the pre-pubescent penis does not look like a grown man's penis. All you have to say (if he even asks) is that when daddy was a baby, they cut part off but now we know that it is bad and hurts babies a whole lot. He will be so happy you protected him from being hurt!
I wanted to take a moment to go over some intact care information. You might have read these things but I figure it couldn't hurt to post this anyway. Always remind doctors/care providers not to manipulate your son's foreskin in anyway, shape, or form. There is no reason for them to even touch his penis. The biggest danger to an intact boy is forcible retraction so you will need to be very careful that everyone who may care for/examine him knows not to try to retract for any reason. It is best to remind the doctor
BEFORE the diaper comes off during exams. This might sound like over-kill but it is really not, many US doctors will ignorantly try to retract. They don't receive any training about foreskin development.

If poop gets on the penis you can wipe like a finger. You don't wipe after urination this is totally unnecessary and could disturb the natural flora.
In the bath you just swish in the water. With both boys and girls you want to avoid bubble baths and soaking in soapy water. This can irritate genitals and cause flora imbalance. I always apply the baby wash to my son last after he has finished playing and then rinse him immediately. Never apply soaps directly to your child's genitals.
This is not foreskin related but good to know:
For both boys and girls yeast infections can happen during the diaper wearing years or after a round of antibiotics. This is has nothing to do with his foreskin but I thought I would address it anyway. Yeast is easily treated with an OTC anti-fungal or prescription anti-fungal. To avoid yeast infections you should always have give your child probiotics during and for one week after a round of antibiotics. You can get probiotic supplements from the pediatrician or from a health food store. They have some especially formulated for infants and babies. Probiotics are just healthy bacteria. Also, if you choose to cloth diaper you will want to strip your diapers with vinegar and hang them to dry in the sunlight if you ever get diaper yeast (thrush). Yeast can be quite hard to remove from cloth diapers. You will want to use sposies until the yeast on your baby is treated and all the diapers have been stripped.
Development of the intact boy:
During childhood/adolescence your son will go through a normal separation process as the foreskin separates from the glans. It is different for each boy and happens at a different age for each boy. During this time he might experience some irritation, itching, stinging, minor redness, minor swelling, ballooning, spraying, smegma pearls, uneven retraction, etc. These are all totally NORMAL and resolve by themselves. We get a lot of concerned parents come here asking about their son's irritated or slightly inflamed penis. 97% of the time it is just normal separation occurring. Some boys don't experience any of this but most boys have 1 of these symptoms at some point. Unless it gets increasingly worse, extremely inflamed, he has fever, or you suspect yeast there is nothing to worry about. Bacterial infections are VERY rare! Usually the symptoms of separation resolve themselves within 48 hours. Due to the fact that US doctors know very little about the development of the intact boy, it is wise to wait it out and let this resolve.
Remember that just b/c the foreskin has separated from the glans does NOT mean that anyone should try to retract your son. The opening of the foreskin remains very narrow and widens with sexual maturity. A foreskin only becomes retractable after the foreskin has separated and the opening has widened. Only 50% of boys are retractable by age 10. It is normal for a boy to not become retractable until after puberty. The only person to retract a boy should be the boy himself. Here is a helpful thread about separation:

This is much more info than you asked for but I thought I would post it so that you can protect your intact boy from the harms of a very uneducated medical field we have here in the US.
People do ask if our kids will have dreadlocks 
they have obviously never tried to brush a little boys hair!
So with any luck, by the time DS is old enough to ask about foreskins, DH will have one!
