14 Things You Need To Know About Your New Baby

3.      Soft Spot

All babies have a soft spot on their heads, at the top of their skulls. This is so that they can come out at birth easily. It is true that you must be very gentle when handling this area, but it can be handled. If you need to comb hair or wash their head, you can softly brush over this spot. You may feel a pulse in this area, because the veins are directly underneath this spot.
