I noticed when I put my baby upright sometimes it looks like this picture
She doesn’t otherwise seem sick, in 2; hours I counted her peeing like 11 times and she eats non stop..??? I’d only be concerned she has diabetes or something ? But she doesn’t look dehydrated . When she’s lying down you can’t see it, like In the pictures.
She has a tiny bit of green w some of her poops. Otherwise she seems fine to me. My bf said she seems fine and I’m exaggeration

I called my dr but she’s only 3 weeks and a couple days old, they won’t see me bc her Insurance needs like time to show up in the system n they said I can only take her to the er! Which I don’t wwnna do bc I don’t want to expose her to germs bc she does otherwise seem healthy; she also was seen at the pediatrician like 3 days ago.. I didn’t notice till after we left.. but I think if e was dehydrate or anything they would notice. ?
I’m annoyed at the pediatrian office bc she’s supposed to be included in my plan for 30 days it’s been 24 . They won’t see her wtf.

Totally normal, as she’s grows older the bones will move towards each other, close the gap and fuse together.

I’m not sure that is normal? Mine you couldn’t see the fontanelle like that, only feel it.

It may be normal for her. I’d probably like to get it checked. I’m assuming you are in the US? I don’t think it needs the ER, a GP or a paed will do, or what about where you have birth? Would you still be classed as under their care? Can you afford to pay for a consult?

Not relevant to you but i will say it, thank fuck for the NHS.

My DS1's looked a bit sunken when he was upright sometimes, must have been the shape of his head, DS2's doesn't though. It doesn't sound like she,'s dehydrated OP so might just be her anatomy?

Normal. It will close over the coming months.
