Hi thanks for writing to Practo consult. I can exactly notice , but I feel you are asking about the slight hump on the Centre of the scalp . You may visit a Pediatrician or a Pediatric neurosurgeon for same. But in my opinion In case your baby is growing well and development is perfect for age, do not worry about head shape.
