Babies: 0 - 3 Months

What does the back of your baby's head feel like?

The back of Max's head feels weird. Are there 2 soft spots - one on top and one in the back? It almost feels like he has a soft spot in the back of his head and his skull is fusing together weird like the upper part is overlapping the bottom. DCP said she noticed it too. I'm not worried enough to make a Dr appt, but I'll definitely bring it up in a month at his 4mo appt.

Or maybe it's normal and I just don't remember it from Mitchell...??

ETA: Just read that they actually have 6 soft spots, but only 2 are noticeable - the one on top and the one in back. Still, it feels like it's growing together weird...

  • Since everything happens so quickly in terms of their development at this age, I would ask the Ped. now rather than waiting until his 4 month appointment in case it needs to be corrected.
