Hi there! I'm not aware heard of such an illness, where a person can feel pain all over but for the head. It is probably much more likely that your baby is so occupied that he simply doesn't care. There is a very rare illness where the person doesn't feel any pain at all anywhere, but there's only like 35 people in the world who have been diagnosed with this ever. What happens if you poke your baby's head? Does he seem to notice what you do? If you seriously think something could be wrong, bring it up with a pediatrician (which I'm not... ;-) ) Good luck and let me know of your progress! /Paula

I doubt that there is anything wrong, but I always suggest if you are concerned about something to ask your pediatrician, you can never be too careful. With that said, I think that many babies either have a high tolerance for minor bumps and bruises or are simply preoccupied. My 9 month old twins have bumped about every inch of their bodies on something or other and have barely made a peep. Where as my 4 year old, who knows that if he cries he will get the attention he thinks it deserves, will break into tears at the slightest bump. I think children are trained to react a certian way to little bumps but newborns, uless they are in a lot of pain, don't yet know that they are supposed to react at all.
