When should you stop undressing with your son in the same room?

Question

I just want to now people's opinion on when a child is old enough to remember or to understand. Right now he is 9 months and I have his crib in my room.

Answer 1

I was 9 months pregnant when my 3 going on 4 year old daughter jumped in the shower with me and pointed out "areas" to me. It was then I stopped and started censoring.

I wouldn't worry about a 9 month old, he has no comprehension what so ever of female/male body parts and sexual intercourse. Parents have sex with their infants in the same room with them everyday because they have no choice. I would start weaning away from doing this @ about 18 months. Depending on the views of your child.

As for undressing. I undress infront of my 2 year old son, he shows no interests, blows me off completely. Sometimes he'll point at my boobs and say 'boobies' but other than that shows no interest. I don't dress infront of the 5 & 7 year old.

Answer 2

that's probable time which you would be able to resign undressing in front of him yet as for breast feeding i do no longer think of that's a great deal. you do no longer choose him to think of that breastfeeding is "grimy" or "inner maximum". I breastfed in front of my 4 3 hundred and sixty 5 days previous son each and every of the time while my 2d son became right into a toddler and he understood it became into to feed the toddler we even have open conversations relating to the adjustments in ladies bodies and boys bodies and have been toddlers come from and each thing so in case you clarify it to him age properly he would be advantageous.

Answer 3

My son is 4 years old. I try not to let him see me naked, but he runs in the room sometimes anyway. I think by 4 years they are old enough to understand the difference.

Answer 4

My son is three and he knows what the different body parts are, so I don't get undressed in front of him anymore or let him follow me into the bathroom.

Answer 5

thats fine for now but stop when he hits 3 or so. my son took a bath with both me and my husband up until he was 2 and then i stopped my bath time but my husband bathe with him till he was 4 then he said u are a big boy now and time to take your own bath... but i stopped undressing in front of my son at age 2 and my hubby did it after bath time was over... so be careful and as long as they dont become too curious its alright...

Answer 6

Four for most kids. Even my cousin's autistic son had some sense that he should knock, although sometimes he still forgot to wait for someone to say 'come in'. By 5, he was great at it. I would be less concerned about him seeing you or hubby naked than if he walked in on a house guest!

Answer 7

My kids all follow me in the bathroom, bedroom, need to ask me something when I'm in the shower... My oldest is 10. Sure they can tell the difference and yes they do ask, but they have to learn about that kind of thing eventually. My five year old has asked many things like why mommies have boobies or why he has a "winkey" and mommy doesn't. I just answer his questions to the best of my ability.

Answer 8

My son is just a year and a half and he knows that I'm different. When I start feeling uncomfortable with him seeing me or he gets uncomfortable seeing me we'll stop showering and dressing together. I'd say it'll be when he reaches four that I stop. If not, who cares? If no one feels awkward then why does it matter?

Answer 9

Kids rarely remember anything before 3 or 4, however, you're gonna want to stop changing in front of him around 2. That's when he'll start to point and ask questions.

Answer 10

he is only 9 months you have a while before it will affect him if it will affect him at all..you have years!!!
