So I've just been told by a friend (whose husband is surgeon, so you'd think they'd know) that I should be stretching my two-year old's foreskin on a daily basis - ie pulling it down in the bath so that it won't be too tight later. I can't believe this can be the case - surely I would know - gp/ health visitor/ some health professional would have told me - but tis true that later circumsion for boys whose foreskins are too tight seems to be quite common (both my nephews as one example). Obviously I think this is a job for dh but he's still quite peed off that we didn't get ds circumsised and says it's my job - which i guess it is as he's never around at bath time anyway.
But is it really necessary - is anyone else doing it? Am a bit squeamish about the whole thing tbh.
