Hard lymph nodes baby

Looking for a bit of reassurance if possible, my baby has two tiny bumps one behind each ear, which looking into it may be her lymph nodes.
But from what I read they are meant to be soft but they seem to be hard but movable.
I'm out of my mind with worry. Can someone tell me if their babies had hard lymph nodes at all and were ok?x

My boy had these, two tiny little hard lumps behind his ear. I'd actually forgotten all about them until I saw your post. He's 21 now and I don't remember if they went of their own accord or if I found something else to worry about which took precedence. Either way, I didn't get them checked out.

That's normal for my third DC. He always seemed to have hard lumps there. I worry about everything!! Doctor told me it was fine, especially as they were both the same in size and firmness.

My daughter had this as a baby. She is now 25 and a mother herself. They went eventually without causing any problems.
