    My son had the same thing when he was 8 weeks, we had to get xrays and blood work done and by the time the 3 weeks were up for the test results it was gone. When i researched it though it said that some cases can take up to 6 months to absorb back into their body.

    Caput suc. usually heals after a week. Cephalhematoma usually heals for a long time and there is a tendency of the newborn to be yellowish because of rapid destruction of RBC's.
