continuing the testicular theme

highlight of my week working in the inpatient newborn unit:

me: excuse me dr, this woman has a question about her son's testicles
dr: yes ma'am?
woman: i'm concerned that they're...too big
me: they look about normal when comparing them to all the others we've seen this week
dr: yeah, newborn scrotums are usually large compared to their penises
woman: that's good to hear
dr: yeah, like father like son, right? *starts to laugh*
me: *face in hands*
woman and husband: *nervous laughter*
