Should I worry???

Question

So every once in awhile I see my 2 yr old son rub himself against furniture. Has anyone else experienced something like this? Is it normal??? I forgot to bring it up to the dr last time we went. 
I know little kids go through an exploratory phase I just thought he was too little for that. Is that what this is???

Answer

Normal. I’ve seen a 2 year old boy touch his penis because it was hard and he noticed it and ever since then he would touch it to make it hard. It was definitely weird but the doctor said it was normal so we never worried about it. He quit within 6 months to a year. We just told him he doesn’t do that in front of people. That’s a private thing to do. It’s rude to do in public. He quit doing it shortly after.

Answer

why would you think it's too young? 
it's perfectly normal from birth on for the genitals to have pleasure sensation

Answer

I used to teach 2 yr olds at preschool. It’s totally normal and nothing to worry about, although it is pretty awkward.

Answer

My daughter did something similar. Took her to the doctor and chit chatted about the beat way to handle it. Doc said it’s totally normal, and to not chastise or make a big deal otherwise it becomes a game, fun, or a negative attention go to. Usually she was just bored or anxious.
