Fontanelle Closures

by Cathy Parkes January 18, 2021 1 Comment

A child's posterior fontanelle closes between 6-8 weeks. The anterior fontanelle closes between 12-18 months.

Just as baby is on her back first then her front later, posterior (back) fontanelle closes first then anterior (front) closes later.
