The ultrasound showed the pocket of fluid, but we didn't learn much more from it. So the doctor ordered an X-ray to check for any problems with his skull. That decision alone was a relief, as Megan had come home from the ultrasound imaging appointment wishing that we could see how the bones were arranged.
So at 20 days old, Benjamin had his first X-rays.


And I got to wear my second special hospital get-up on account of Benjamin.

After reviewing the X-rays, our doctor called to say that they looked normal. He thinks the "bubble" may be a result of Benjamin being stuck during delivery, and expects it to simply go away over time.
UPDATE: After a week or two the bubble had dissolved and we could no longer feel anything abnormal in the spot on Ben's head.
