Soft spot still soft
My baby is 2y2m old and his soft spot is still not closed, a very small portion is yet to be hard. Baby is otherwise in good health and have met all milestones. Is there anything to worry about?

Soft spot on head (anterior fontanelle) usually closes by 1.5 years. Please meet a pediatrician. But usually it is not a major problem
