I over the past week developed a small painful lump on the back of my head.It is over where you have the normal hard bone back there.I am 33 weeks pregnant and did get really stressed out this past week about something-and I noticed the lump soon after-could it be stress related?I would call my doctor but he is closed over the weekend.Any ideas what it could be-any similar experiences?

I had that too (not necessarily when pregnant). At the base of the skull. It was something like a swollen lymph gland. Nothing serious at all. But you should definitely get it checked out as soon as you can.

My dad had the sme thing and he went to the doctor and he said that it's just a stress bump because he works at night in a really dusty place. But it might be different for you because you're pregnant. You should see your doctor a.s.a.p.! ( Congradulations on your baby)!!

It sounds like a boil. Get it checked out anyway. If it is, they will lance and drain it then wrap in gauze.
