Hello!
I have a few questions to clarify
How old is your baby?
Did the lump appear quickly and suddenly?
What is the size and color of the lump?
Does it look uncomfortable?

She just turned 7 weeks old. I just noticed, she moves when we touch her. I would say that it appeared quickly yes. It seems to be internal, I have not noticed any pain related to it or color.

Given his young age and sudden onset, it is best to have your child seen by a doctor who can properly assess him
I recommend that you take an emergency appointment. There is no need to go to the emergency room unless you don't have a family doctor
