Soft Spot Question Posted: 10-19-04 15:23pm
So what does it mean if a baby's soft spot
is sunken? Brooklyn soft spot is slightly
sunken in... I know it can be a sign of
being sick, but I dont know how deep it
has to be before its no longer normal.
Everything else with her seems fine, she
doesnt have a fever or anything, but last
night up until 9:30 this morning she didnt
really want to eat much, she was, I guess
you can call it snacking, for about 5
minutes at a time. But she seems to be
having enough wet diapers, but she doesnt
poop much anymore, but I heard that is
normal for breastfed babies once they get
to be about 1 month.

Its supposed to be like that, its when it
pops up kinda is when its not too good.
Like not sunken in or soft. Mexicans have
a weird way of getting it back to normal
though. Like I heard before you push on
the roof of their mouth to get it back to
normal, another time I heard then hold the
baby upside down and pat her feet,
umm...Im not sure what else. But it cant
be anybody that does that, it has to be
like a certain lady who knows what shes
doing. Because mexians have this thing,
where if you let anyone touch or hold the
baby who feels envious or dont like
you-the baby can sense it and it can
stress the baby and stuff. Its wierd but
we go by it anyways lol
