LOL my DS's head was HUGE when he was born. he was also 8.15lbs. i ended up with a c-section. baby's grow into their heads. i wouldn't worry.

Re: babes head measuring big?
Some people (DD) have big heads and some (DS) have small heads.
If your Dr was concerned, they would send you for a special sono to look at the ventricles of the baby's brain. An obstruction in flow can cause a really big head.
If your Dr is not... it's probably just a variation of normal (Like my DD's huge head).

DS's head measured in the 110th percentile ever since birth - and still does at almost 4 years old.
Vaginal delivery and I recovered somewhat easily.
It all works out.... :)

At my sonos they always told me DS's head was big. When he was born, it was actually just average. Take all sono measurements with a grain of salt. Just a slight inaccuracy makes for a big difference.

Re: babes head measuring big?
My first ds had a big head and my dr said I was narrow so I opted for the c section. He still has a big head at 4 but he is healthy and his body is catching up lol.

During my 30 week sono, ds's head was measuring at 37/38 weeks, while the rest of him measured at 31/32 weeks... Yes, he has a big head... but so does DH... like, DH's is enormous, he needs to special order his hats as most stores don't carry his size.

I agree with this.

Yes, my son's head and belly were in the 90th percentile and his legs were below average. We joke we were going to have a garden gnome. He was born, vaginally, at 8lbs7oz. He's 2 1/2 now and perfect.
