Soft spot

gamg17

My apologies in advance if I've missed a thread but looking for comments regarding my 19 month old's soft spot on top. Ped said it could take up to 2 years to close so I'm not overly worried but his is about the size of a quarter still. Anything to be on the lookout for?
Thanks!

I guess new...often a reader but not really a poster since most threads help me with my concerns.

What's customary to know then? I just thought this was a public forum to seek advice or share other news, if that's what you are comfortable with...

If it's a public forum, yes I would ask my question. I honestly don't see an issue with that, perhaps just different perspectives of online behaviors.

By no means am I looking for drama, just wanted reassurance on a sensitive subject with my kid. I asked what is customary to avoid putting unnecessary info online but not getting a good vibe - I'll move on, no worries.

My friend's kiddo has a slowly closing soft spot. Pedi told her that just meant she needed to really make sure he was at every well check so that they could monitor it. Like @mishy2006 said if your pedi isn't worried about it I wouldn't be either.
Regarding the intro, all you need is a "hey I'm new here. Baby is 19 mo born in May. I often lurk but never post. Can you help me with my problem..." just some acknowledgement that you recognize you're not part of the community but would appreciate our help.

No you were not and given our past history of having someone jump in here with constant name changes completely in your right to ask her.
