Many of these testicles gradually descend into the normal position during the following months. Tight foreskin Most uncircumcised infant boys have a tight foreskin that doesn't allow you to see the head of the penis. This is normal and the foreskin should not be retracted. Erections Erections occur commonly in a newborn boy, as they do at all ages. They are usually triggered by a full bladder.
Erections demonstrate that the nerves to the penis are normal.
Tight hips Your child's physician will test how far your child's legs can be spread apart to be certain the hips are not too tight. As long as the upper legs can be bent outward to 60 degrees and are the same on each side, they are fine. The most common cause of a tight hip is a dislocation. If you stand your baby up, you will also notice that the legs are bowed. Both of these curves are normal and will straighten out after your child has been walking for 6 to 12 months.
