A member asked:
Is a 7 month old babies soft spot on top of their head noticeable when their hair is wet?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Anterior fontanelle: Should be easy to feel by gently touching with the soft part of the fingertips whether wet or dry. It usually closes at around a year of age, but the timing is quite variable.
