Lump on baby's head.. help

[Aeval]

I have a 4 month old baby girl and this weekend I noticed a bump on her head.  It's about 3mm in diameter. It's hard like cartiledege or bone.  It's beneath the skin so it's not visible.  It doesn't move with the skin so it seems to be on the bone itself.  I called the doc and we are going in Tuesday or Wednesday.  The bump doesn't seem to cause her ANY pain - she has no illness symptoms at all.  She's happy and her appetite is great as usual.  

Any idea what this might be?

Very often they do come back if you take a scroll down ,this one has been unlucky ...you can send a note or a PM to the members who start the thread and ask how their child is doing ....

Why doesn't anyone ever get back on this site and post the outcome? My granddaughter has a small hard lump on the back of her head and I was hoping to get some answers here. Please parents' come back and post results!

Well my daughter was about 5 months when hers appeared pretty much over night we scheduled an appointment and he said he wasn't sure it might by a cyst that bone or a lympnode that has turned to bone. Anyways finally I got something done at her 10 month appointment they sent her for exrays its not any kind of bone at all. So now im having to see a specialist for a head and neck surgeon. We go tomorrow

Hi, I've just discovered the same sort of lump on my 4 month olds head in the same position, at the top left towards the front and i haven't been able to have it checked yet. Its quite big like an adult thumb. What was the verdict with your childs lump? I'm very worried.
