HI,Welcome to HCM.
Based on the facts of your query,Your baby seems to suffer from Congenital dermoid Cyst in the temple,which is movable in your case.
CT scan would fix the diagnosis of it.
Hope this reply would help you to resolve the anxiety with it and would help you to plan further treatment with your doctors soon.
Welcome for any further query in this regard,to be attended in next session.
