    well, with both my boys it was almost as soon as they got control of their arms so fairly early, so I picked before 3 months! For Louis it's an ongoing thing, pants on or not Marcus seems less interested unless his nappy is off

    For a while there as soon as no nappy his hand were there. ATM cause we are TT he is running aroung with no pants on most of the day and he seems to leave it alone more.

    Unless Neve says " he is touching me with his willy" as he dived on her the other night and then that was an open invitation to chase her holding his willy to try to touch her. Screams from her , laughing from him and me. LOL

    about 6 - 12 mths i think with both boys. well thats when it was really more purposeful. and kk at almost 3 - well he wont let go of it atm . constantly reminding him to leave it alone.

    11 months for both my boys. When the nappy comes off the hand dives down there every time. Change time, bath-time, 'ooh lookie lookie my nappy fell off lets have a play' - time.

    i put over 12 months but stephen is now nearly 10 so it is a bit foggyhe probably found it before then but it became an issue later.....

    i have a funny story...

    My darling not only found his bits but once he was toilet trained he would not leave it alone!!!!!!!!!
    so when we were having a check up at the health center I talked to the nurse abouut it and she said it was perfectly normal
    I said " i guess they grow out of it"
    and she said "no they just learn not to do it in public"

    Both boys found their "bits" at around 3-4 months. As soon as their nappies were off then their hands would be down there.

    when my little boy found his he treated it a bit like puppetry of the penis and trying to stretch it right out, when his dad saw him do it he winced.

    William's not really bothered with his much at all. Other than Easter last year, when he was playing and I said what are you doing - and he said playing with my Easter Eggs I had to inform his that they weren't easter eggs, and explained the correct name. Now he just doesn't bother much at all.

    Alex was pretty much as soon as he developed arm control.
    He's pretty good now, it's sort of an absent-minded thing now. Although, when he deoderises himself with Daddy's roll-on, he also uses it on his doodle.
