my 2 year old son (almost 3 years ) has been having about 15 erections a day, if not more. what is going on? Ive triued reading up on it and Ive never read of the kids having more than 3 a day. is there something wrong? Ive also found him playing woth him self. is this normal or should I take him to the doctor? He is also very uncomfotable with his erections, pulliung at it and telling me to lift it up for him for more comfort. (thats what my husband told me to do)

I don't think it's a big issue to be worried about.
Of course, taking him to a doctor can't hurt.

I have 2 boys, now 32 and 19. They both did the same thing. There were times when i was afraid to close the diaper as i thought i would snap it off!!! They tend to wake in the morning with a hard on, this is probably because they have to pee. Also, little boys do play with themselves. They have discovered something that feels good to them, which is normal. There are ways to distract him, just use your imagination. Play with his toys with him, read him a book, play some music and dance with him, distract him. If you see him starting to play with his penis, get his attention away from himself. At 3, he should be able to start to understand you, just a little bit. Remove his hand and gently tell him, no, no, and that should be all you need to say. Don't go into a long drawn out explanation of why he shouldn't do this. He is 3. Don't make him feel that what he is doing is bad, and never tell him that he is a bad boy and that what he is doing is bad. You and your husband or whom ever else is with him a lot should never make a fuss over this, and don't discuss it in front of him. He may be young, but trust me, they somehow get what your saying. Picking him up doesn't do any good. Maybe he's got your number tho. He might think that if he does this, mom will pick me up. It's not a help at all. The next time he goes for a well baby visit, make a mental note to bring it up to his Doctor. I am almost positive that your baby is 100% normal.
