Baby head size

Ok I know I am probably worrying about nothing but going to ask anyway because it's hard not to worry Sad

Baby is nearly 10 months. Earlier I put a new outfit on her in 9-12 months size. There was a headband that came with it and it's WAY too big for her. Rest of the outfit fits ok, although slightly loose.

She is very alert and active, crawled before 7 months, pulling up and standing on her own for a few seconds, very vocal, pointing at things etc. So seems normal developmentally but we missed the last check around 8 months because of lockdown.

So I know it's probably nothing but just worried her head isn't growing as it should be? They measured at last check we had which was 12 weeks and it was all fine.

If she's developmentally ok then I wouldn't worry

She sounds fine, my daughter has always had a small head, she hit all milestones early and was reading at the age of 3.

Ah cool thanks both Smile I was pretty sure I didn't need to worry but because I've missed the last check I don't really know how she's doing size-wise!

Unless it looks blatantly too small, I wouldn't worry.
