Pulling his willy 😣

In the bath, my 1 year old sometimes pulls his willy really really hard. Like he stretches it and it snaps back out of his hand. Does anyone else’s boy do this? Or know if this is something to be worried about? I don’t have a willy but doesn’t look like it feels nice to do this!

Yeeesss! Mine does this all the time and he LAUGHS about it! 😅🫠 I talked to my peds about it and she said just laughed and said he's just exploring and found it. And to try to distract him with a toy or something. He always like presses on his when im changing him too and GIGGLES! Like what's so funny?!?😂😂🥴

My son does the same thing. It freaks me out. I asked my husband and he said it’s normal for boys to do that.

Its normal, they grow out of it. I grew 3 and all did it lol they are perfectly healthy and nothing wrong with the willys.

My son does that too😂😂 It doesn’t hurt them. If it did they would cry. But yeah it did freak me out at first.

Normal lol. My 11 month old just discovered his and I’m waiting for the pulling to start. My 2.5 year old either pulls or pushes it out of existence 😂

Yes exactly the same he just laughs 😮‍💨🤣

Thanks everyone xx Glad to know he’s in good company 😆 Let the lifelong obsession with their willies begin!

My 9 months old does the same thing

Like other mamas said it’s completely normal lol

My son does and has done since about 6 months 😂 it looks so painful

Yesssssss!

Yesss! And I’m not sure which one freaks me out more the stretching it or the one finger pushing it inside! 🫨 both make me twinge 😩🤣

Lmfao my son does this, he even slaps it a couple of times and laughs

Mine does it too and also runs around with his hands in his pants and thinks its funny 🥹🤣

Mine does it normal I’ve been told if it hurt him he would show discomfort

My 10m does this all the time even hits it! To me it just looks like it hurts but my husband swears hes fine 🤣

My 10 month old does this when I’m changing his diaper 😆 thank God I found this post. I was going to talk to his pediatrician about it.

They all do it. Mine now jams it in like a button.

my 10month old does this too if I'm changing him. Really have to wonder if it hurts but don't look like it does lol

Oh my God, oh my God I hope this is not true!!!! I’m kind of scared

I’ve been throwing up and taking a shit all night!!! I just hope that it’s not what I think it is

Small head reported following 20 week scan

Has anyone else had it flagged that their baby is in the bottom 5th percentile for head size?

They said everything was fine whilst we were in the scan and then I got a phone call the next day saying that it’s on the small side and we’re being referred to a paediatric specialist at St George’s. Has anyone else had this and how did things go??

Would you bring 9 week old to a family party of 35+ people?

These are also people who will want to pass the baby around and get a turn to hold him. He just got his 2 month shots two days ago

Exercise 6 weeks after c section

What movement did people start to introduce? I won’t do anything too vigorous until I’ve seen the pelvic physio as I don’t want to compromise anything that may have been extremely weakened through pregnancy! But just wondering what types of classes/movement people started off with?

Induction experience

I just wanted to share my experience with being induced as I wasn’t sure what to expect and thought it may help others.

I opted for the foley balloon which was inserted at 8am Saturday morning, I had to stay in hospital due to hypertension and protein urine however usually you can just go home once this has been done. The insertion of the balloon was not painful, was slightly uncomfortable as there was slight pressure. I actually found having the cervix checked prior to be worse (again not painful at this point just uncomfortable) The balloon had little effect and after having it removed I was still only 1cm. Removal also was pain free and hardly even noticeable.

I then had my first dose of the gel and definitely noticed a difference, I started experiencing period like cramps almost immediately however they were light and manageable. After 6 hours I had another cervix check and although my cervix was soft it was still only 1cm and was only open at the front. I had another dose of the gel and felt an increase in pressure and more intense cramping where I now required pain relief (codeine). After another 6 hours I had another cervix check and I had now dilated to 2-3cm however was still quite difficult to get all the way through so a third gel was recommended which I agreed to.

Almost immediately I noticed the difference and was in considerable pain, I had paracetamol and codeine however the contractions had now become intense and a lot closer together (around 3 minutes apart). After a couple of hours I had my last cervix check and was 4cm and taken down to the Labour ward to have my waters broken and an epidural.

I had been in my room for approx 20minutes when my waters broke by themselves and I was now 10cm and actively pushing…. There was no time for the epidural and my beautiful girl arrived into the world within 2 minutes of pushing.

All in all I would say the cramps/contractions were manageable up until the third gel where it became pretty unbearable however it was for a very short time a gas and air helped take the edge off. The worst part about any of it was actually the later cervix checks where after stimulating the cervix my contractions were at their most painful.

If I had to be induced again I would skip the balloon and opt for the gels immediately as thy had a quicker effect and I would have been out a lot sooner if I had done this to begin with.

One more thing, I’ve never believed when people say “you forget the pain once they’re here” but I can honestly say this is true. It’s been 4 days and I would do it all again in a heartbeat.

Anyone else experiencing this?

Gave birth (vagina) 5 days ago and yesterday morning and this morning getting lot of pain in my right bottom side and lower back
