anterior fontanelle normotensive
Explanation:
I presume "FP" is "fontanella posteriore", but you'll have to post a separate question.

"On examination, she was alert, comfortable, not irritable, capillary refill time was less than 2 seconds, anterior fontanelle normotensive."
http://www.medalerts.org/vaersdb/findfield.php?IDNUMBER=7342...

Or "anterior fontanelle pressure normal"

Normal values of the anterior fontanelle pressure, pulse pressure amplitude and pressure wave maximal amplitude were established in 15 prematures, 27 term newborns and 10 infants. Anterior fontanelle pressure monitoring was performed in 19 term newborns with post-asphyxial encephalopathy, 18 newborns and infants with hydrocephalus, 8 preterm and term newborns with respiratory distress and 19 patients with subdural haematomas, metabolic diseases, meningitis, subarachnoidal haemorrhage, head trauma, post cardiac arrest encephalopathy and abnormal head growth or bulging fontanelle. Abnormal patterns of anterior fontanelle pressure monitoring were found in moderate or severe neonatal post-asphyxial encephalopathy, evolutive hydrocephalus, subdural haematomas, metabolic diseases with hyperammoniemia and other clinical situations. In contrast, anterior fontanelle pressure monitoring yielded normal values in mild post-asphyxial encephalopathy, arrested hydrocephalus, well functioning ventriculo-peritoneal derivation, and in normal infants with rapid head growth or bulging fontanelle.

normotensive Frontal Fontanel - Occipital/Posterior Fontanel + (bulging?)


Explanation:
FA = Fontanella anteriore = Frontal Fontanel
FP = Fontanella posteriore = Occipital/Posterior Fontanel

For the "+" I guess it may stand for bulging
