A. this part of the body do not represent the core temperature of the body so if your child is comfortable and accepting feeds and if his body temperature is less then 100 then it's normal

A. Hi dear good morning nothing to worry about it much. Body heat and sweating is common in normal in babies. Babies sweat more than adults. Because of larger head circumference. Its not an issues. But excessive sweating should be checked. Also keep checking for body temperature in armpits if it's more It's better to check with your doctor and follow his advise. That would be the best and safest option.
