Hi Everyone,

This is my first time posting but i’m in a bit of a spiral so desperately need some advice.

My 20 month old Son has developed a habit over the past few months of touching/pulling/squeezing his penis at any given opportunity. When I am changing his nappy he immediately puts his hands there. In the bath he pretty much holds it or pulls it the whole time.

He is the first boy in my family and all my friends have girls or boys younger so I don’t have anyone to ask about this.

Is it normal or should I take it as cause for concern?

Thanks for any help!

It's completely normal. Just teach him to touch his private parts in private.
