Soft spot
I’m a first-time mom, and my newborn is 40 days old. I wasn’t aware of the soft spot on a baby’s head, and I have been applying some pressure around my baby’s head while lifting them from the feeding pillow during feeding. Could this have accidentally caused any damage to my baby’s brain?
