i am sure his mum has seen it if it is that noticeable

babies can have downy hair all over. even on their genitalia. it can be more noticeable with darker haired babies

Hi,
Have any of your baby's have long quite dark hairs on thier scrotum??
Sorry to keep on about it but im so worried there's something wrong.

i would mention it to his mum and just see what she says.
perhaps she has already noticed it and seen someone about it and they've said not to worry?
