I am noticing a black spot on the centre of my baby's tongue. Initially I thought its due to the Order drops which I give her.But then I see it's not going. Is this something to be worried about.

No,relax,it's most probably a simple pigmentation,and of no clinical significance. But if you feel it's increasing in size or numbers,you may consult your paediatrician.
