Have you noticed a bruise or swelling over the scalp? I doubt any serious injury to infant's head. In case infant develops unusual irritability, drowsiness, or vomiting, he needs medical attention.

Please follow up with your Pediatrician tomorrow. Watch for any lethargy,change in feeding pattern and vomiting. A virtual consult with Healthtap is available and the scalp may be examined. Remove any excess bedding and He should sleep on his back.
