The posterior fontanelle typically closes early, by 2 to 3 months of age, so in your baby (almost 4 months), it is expected to be closed. The anterior fontanelle usually closes between 9 and 18 months of age, with the average closure around 13 to 14 months. Early or delayed closure might be indicating towards pathological states .
