Awkward question about baby DS

hi all,

ds is 12 weeks and everytime i open his nappy to change him, the end of his foreskin is “stuck” to his balls. i have to very gently nudge his penis to unstick it. i can’t find any info on this online and i don’t know if it’s normal or not, please help 😩 my first was a girl 😅

Are your children’s vaccines up to date?

Perfectly normal (Mum to two boys and one grandchild so far)
Little boys willies in nappies are warm sticky objects! It'll stick less as he grows, but even my (now 4 yr old) grandson often has to unstick his when he goes for a wee :) Just keep doing as you are, it's fine.

Yeah, they are like those annoying lizards that you throw at walls that stick 😂 very normal. Just brace yourself for summer!

I'm mum to three boys and it's normal.

Grin at lizards sticking to walls!

Absolutely normal. My 6 year old was having a rummage and I asked if everything was ok 'yeah, my willy is just stuck to my leg' he replies 🙈

these replies have massively relieved me 🤣 i thought he had extra long skin or something!

Yes very normal for babies , boys and men. Have you never seen a man do the little semi squat/ slight bend at the waist and tweak the front of t heir trousers?!😂 that’s what that is.

Yes, my DH calls it "realigning the stars" 😂
