Frontal bossing?

[Rach7291]

DD has a big head. Its way above the 99th centile. Does her forehead look normal or not? I've asked the GP and HV but i'm just not sure? I have severe anxiety so worry about this stuff anyway!

Aye, but what are you going to do about it?
There is literally nothing you, or anyone, can do.
I have four children, two have it, two don’t. It’s just the way some heads go.

So you have a decision to make, worry about, or enjoy your baby?
(I know it’s trickier than that..but that’s what it boils down to)

One centile is pretty meaningless without knowing their other centiles.

Also, head size can be genetic. Do you their DF have large heads?

And are you getting any support for your anxiety?

This. My DC had a big head from birth; I measured my DH and DF’s heads and lo and behold, they have big heads! My DC is tall too she looks perfectly proportioned (as do my husband and dad, luckily for them). How old is she OP?

@TinyMouseTheatre her weight is 50th and height is 75th. I am getting some help for anxiety, but its still a problem.

@Plastictrees she is 6.5 months. I have a huge head as does her dad. I'm just worrying about the shape of her forehead but it seems that its ok hopefully!

She’s fine OP! Honestly I was a bit worried at 6 months but they tend to ‘grow into’ their heads and their hair grows too. If you and her dad have huge heads, that’s your answer! I hope therapy helps with your anxiety, there’s always something to worry about being a parent.
