erections. He is just two months shy of two years old, and while sitting on the potty training seat, pre-bath, he apparently did a bit of self investigation. My wife found him "flexing" and watching himself rise and fall. He was thoroughly entertained. So much so that rather than staying in the tub for his bath, he got out of the tub and started walking around Flexing himself and watching the results. When I say flexing, I mean picture a body builder doing the pectoral abdominal flex with their arms at their sides. That is exactly what he is doing.

My daughter, just shy of six, was equal parts impressed, curious, and grossed out. "Wow....How does he do that?" and finally "Eewww".

Parenting situations I do not envy....

haha. that's amusing. but slightly ridiculous

What's more disturbing? His discovery, or her reaction?

He learned it from you dad!

Reminds me of when my son, at about the same age, discovered this phenomenon...except he discovered it in the morning while I was getting ready for work. I ended up having to redo my makeup because I laughed so hard I cried after him saying "mommy, look what I can do"!

Oh gosh, I'm not looking forward to this

He learned it from you dad!

LOL! Classic commercial of the 80's. "I learned it from watching you dad!! I learned it from watching you!!"

Are you suggesting he's going to learn it from Antmeister71?

Quoted on a regular basis amongst me and my friends...

You're going to teach him together how to flex his penis?

Good God, woman, that's even more disturbing.

LOL! Classic commercial of the 80's. "I learned it from watching you dad!! I learned it from watching you!!"LOL! That was great!

I wonder at what age Ron Jeremey discovered this. And what his parents reaction was.

What is next? Wet Dreams

If anyone can find this ad on the web, I'd be grateful.

Couldn't find the original but I did find this gem.... :)

Infantile Erections are very normal. However, full blown ejaculation does not occur until puberty.

Dola -

While I'm not a fan of much of Freud's, he did have it correct in that generally speaking Kids are quite sexual until about 5 or 6 on average, and then they go into a "quiet" phase until puberty.

I am pretty sure the line was: "You alright. I learned it by watching you!"

Uh... I completely misunderstood and thought you meant something else. http://www.ifa12b.de/forum/Smileys/classic/embarassed.gif

This is a great thread. The old school memories of the drug commercial combined with erections. Ahhhhhh...the memories...

never really had that problem with Andrew (now five), although he used to pull on his penis while we were changing his diapers. I never saw it, but Elaine said he would tug on it so hard she was afraid he was going to rip it off.

My son did this from about 3mos until 1 year. Everytime I gave him a bath he would start tugging on it. I think he thought it was a toy, and couldnt' figure out why it wouldn't come off. It was painful to watch (ableit kinda funny).

yeah, same thing with our Andrew when he was younger (now almost 9, how time flies) and now with Matthew (just turned two). Sure, Matty pulls on it, especially in the bath, but no really special reaction. Glad I'm not really the only one to not see what the big "not looking forward to this" thing...

Co-worker's son was scared to death of his erection. He couldn't comprehend what was going on, so when it would happen, he would run through the house screaming for mom and dad to "Make it go down! Make it go down!" Despite the funny visual, I think this poor kid is due some therapy in about 15 years.
