Nakakapang bukol sa bumbunan ng baby sanggol

Emcee A
is in the Philippines

May nakakapa po ako na parang maliit na laman sa bandang ibabang bahagi ng ulo niya. Baby pa lang po ang anak ko nakakapa ko na yon, inisip ko po na baka ganun talaga, gang ngayon po ganun pa din pero wala naman po siya nararamdaman pag hinahawakan ko. Ano po kaya yun?


Translation: I can feel a little flesh on the fontanel of my baby. What could this be?

Bones of skull of babies are not fused till one year. You could feel some gap between skull bones which is normal for babies.
try to oberve the baby's reaction when you touch that. Pediatrician would help you if you find any pain or swelling in the area.
