Hi,
From history it seems that your child might be having oral thrush producing this type of bump.
This is common due to breast feeding and and afterwards not cleaning mouth
properly.
Make a habit to clean mouth and tongue after feeding with tissue paper putting on your finger and cleanoral cavity including tongue.
Ok and take care.
