Small head

Hi all,
I have a lovely 4 month old baby girl. She is on the 10th centile for weight, 25th for height and oblt 0.4th for head circumference.
Her head is growing on the line but it is very small and by definition she would be considered microcephalic as it falls below 2 standard deviations below the mean.
I am just terribly worried about her and her development.
So far she seems to be doing ok milestone wise, apart from pushing up during tummy time which she hates.

I was just wondering if there's anyone else out there with small headed babies?
Were they investigated further?
Did they develop ok and if not, when did you notice a delay?

Thanks for any info
