Soft spot
Is this normal, sometimes it’s sunken like this and sometimes you can’t see it. I’ll post another in comments. I’m sat now looking and it looks normal

Yeah I'd speak with a doctor/ health visitor about it as it can mean baby is dehydrated x
Yep, indication of dehydration or other health issues. You should seek done medical advice as this is quite pronounced (perhaps 111 if you are in the U.K.).
Yeah I know it means dehydration that’s why I’m worrying but it’s just so strange that sometimes it’s sunken and others it’s not
I would speak to a doctor/ 111 and see what they say about why it sometimes is and sometimes isn't. Good luck x
Well because the baby is clearly not retaining enough fluids. But speak to a medical professional.
We were told if any sunken in signs or can signal dehydration, I would speak to your GP or HV X

A sunken soft spot can indicate dehydration but also can look sunken from some angles. My sons regularly looked sunken in. Could also just mean baby hasn’t fed in a while. Keep an eye on it and mention it to a doctor if it persists?
