20 weeks scan babies head was measuring small under the line small. Went back a week later and his head has grown not to much but his near enough on the line. Have another scan this Friday I know I should be thinking good thoughts as his head has come up slightly, just can't seem to get it out my head that there is something wrong with him 😥 anyone else's babies measured small and caught up before birth xx

What were the measurements of his head and did they say which percentile he was/is on?

What position is your baby in?

One of my twins supposedly had a small head and I worried myself silly about things that could be wrong with her. It turned out that it was just too hard to get the measurement properly as her head was low down in my pelvis. She was born with a perfectly proportioned head.

Hello ladies, I had the specialist scan me a few days ago she said his whole body is small so she isn’t that worried has booked me in for 2 more scans nearer the time. He is in the 5th centile but my two other children were both born at 6 pounds. Not sure why they told me it was o my his head measuring small when in fact he is just small all over xx
