lump on the back of bretts head.....

i posted this in the maternal and child forum as well but figured i'd put it here too.

so maybe i'm just being a little paranoid....but i was playing with brett and eli on the floor today when i noticed 2 large lumps/bumps on the back of bretts head at the base of the skull. i'm not sure if i should worry about it or not. he is still wobbly when he sits up and is learning how to stand up so he does fall and bump his head alot. it doesn't seem to hurt him (i did feel them and they're big goose eggs....)

should i be worried? their pedi won't be in office until monday afternoon so i can't call her till then.

the bump seems to be going away so i'm guessing he just hit his little head and it's just a goose egg. it really doesn't seem to bother him. he's not any more tired then normal (of course the past week, before the lump appeared, he was sleeping a lot anyways...i think he's hitting a growing spurt again), eating and drinking normally, playing, laughing and everything.

i'm still gonna attempt to get his pedi at least on the phone tomorrow to see what she says.
