What Causes A Pea Sized Hard Bump In A New Born Baby?

My 6 week old son was born with a pea sized hard bump between his eyes. It moves from side to side if you push it, so I'm pretty sure its not connected... but what could it be? Family members have already made unicorn jokes.... I don't want this to be a life long thing.... what could this be and will it go away??

Hi...Thank you for consulting in Health Care magic. I think it could be a fibrous tissue growth. if its not bothering him, I don't think you should worry. As you rightly said, if its moving its not connected inside. But if its bothering cosmetically, I suggest you take the opinion of a plastic surgeon. Hope my answer was helpful for you. I am happy to help any time. Further clarifications and consultations on Health care magic are welcome. If you do not have any clarifications, you can close the discussion and rate the answer. Wish your kid good health.
