Lumpy head?

Do any of your LOs have lumpy heads? DS has had a lump on his head since he was born right where his hair swirls at the top/rear of his skull.  It's not a cyst or something palpable. It feels like bone.  Pedi never mentioned anything about it, and I figured it was deformity from the birthing process but it has not evened out (although i ultimately ended up with a CS i did push for 2.5 hours).  My mom and DH keep telling me that it's normal.  It's not really visible b/c he has a lot of hair, but I can definitely feel it.  I am obsessing about it so we are taking DS to the pedi tomorrow to take a look.  Are your LO's skulls smooth?  Any lumpy heads out there?

  • DS has a visible lump but it is soft and squishy and the pedi explained it to us before he left the hospital. It is from birth and they said it would go away in time.

  • omg dd had such a flat head and then it started to round out and now there is a big lump on the right side.. everybody says it's normal and she'll round it out on her own from rolling around now that she turns herself over.. i wouldn't worry about it.. but im talking to my pedi about it next week
