    yep, it's form of nappy rash. I think there's an actual name for it if it gets worse, but can't remember what it is atm. Marcus had it. the end of his doodle looked red and kind of enlarged (a bit floppy) - does that sound like Jordan? I think it can get scabby if you don't take action.

    All I did was nappy free time as much as possible and more frequent changing for when he did need a nappy on. I didn't need to take him to a GP. I'd just try that for a bit and see if it makes a difference. I found it was worse in the mornings after a full night in a nappy.

    I think it's called balinitis. It can come from an infection under the foreskin. Keep an eye on it. Bactraban ointment works well

    Curash Baby powder is my favorite at the moment. It has been clearing most small infections up I have found that boys bits are so much more difficult to deal with but I have to clean Simon's foreskin each change as just a quick wipe isn't enough.
    Hope it feels better soon.
