Anyone else DS have a sunken in penis?

The head of DS's penis is out but the rest is sunken in. He is chubby so it is the fat around it that it sinks into. Pedi said it is common and to just make sure to pull the skin down into the fat so it pops out and won't get adhesions at every diaper change. He said it will come out more over time. Just wondering if anyone else has this?

The head of my son's penis goes in... started at about 2 months. The doctor said it tends to happen and should go away. He said his grandson had it and is 4 now and "looks" normal lol. Scared the hell out of me when it happened. It still bothers me a little bit, but I just hope it'll go away sooner than later.

Yup DS's is like that.  Doc said it will look normal by the time he's 3.  MIL annoyed the f outta me about it.  We chose to have the doc do the circ instead of going the traditional Jewish mohel route.  She thinks the doc botched the circ job. lol

My DS has this too because of the fatty skin on top of it. It already looks a lot more "normal" than when he was just born and I can already tell it's slowly going away. The pedi told us it is common too. We still use non-petroleum jelly at every diaper change and he still has some adhesions. The pedi said it's unavoidable because of how is penis is and that they will correct themselves as he grows.

My DS had this too, and he's 3 now and totally normal. As they get slimmer, it begins to look more normal.
