Question for mums of boys

plastic · Mar 14th, 2012, 07:59 AM

Just a quick question that has been puzzeling me, I have noticed sometimes my LOs sack looks full and sometimes in looks like a deflated balloon! I am assuming this is to do with testicles ascending and descending.

Just now I changed him though and one side was down and the other wasn't, has anyone seen this, their LOs had it or would it be considered normal?

Concerned boy novice here!

The look changes all the time, totally normal. It also depends if they are cold or not lol

His sack will tense up when hes cold, its so when his balls actually do drop its keeps them safe from being cold also when its all hanging loose its because they are drawing away from the body because they are too hot, Pretty much its so his little swimmers are at peek when he needs them, hopefully when hes 30 LOL just like I'm hoping with my son

As previous posters have said its normal to see all sorts of changes but if you do notice one side seems swollen you should get this checked out as my LO had a hernia on one side which the HV noticed while I was changing his nappy!
