ok, my understanding is that little boys' foreskins are kind of closed over the end of their willies when theyre born as natures way of keeping the delicate bit clean, but that over time, it loosens and they can then pull it back to reveal the 'head'.
i know that at this point, they need to pull it back to clean under it (memories of my mother calling up the stairs to my brothers and i in the bath);
'have you all washed behind your ears?'
'yesss' (the chorused reply)
'have the boys washed behind your foreskins?'
'yesss'
[still makes me laugh after all this time sigh.]
sooo, question is: when is it supposed to loosen up? and if it hasnt done by 3, am i sposed to go to the doc and get them to do something about it??
