    It should be fine as long as you are careful about pulling it back and giving it a quick wash but make sure you don't pull back too far or try and force it or you won't get it to go back again  My son kept getting infections and at  4 he was circumcised because of the infections

    DS is nearly 3 and I have never been told to do this - best thing is to ask your HV and get the proper advice. 

    I'm sure it gets cleaned in the bath and the only time i would worry about it would be if it was smelly - in which case i'd go off to the docs.

    DS is a year (almost lol) and I was told to leave it alone and let him play with it as he gets bigger in the bath and it would sort itself out x

    i was told by a pead to gently pull my sons back, but not force it iyswim for cleaning, but he kept getting infections because his hole wasnt big enough and by pulling it gently the idea was to loosen it to avoid an op, it worked, if your unsure ask your gp maybe

    My son is 28 mths and never had any problems. I just clean around the general area as does he when in the bath. Have never tried to pull the skin back.
