98th percentile Head Circumference 4 month old baby

Hi everyone..
Just after a little advice if anyone can help!

My 4 month old son has a large head & today at a checkup I was told that he needs to have a Head Scan to check for fluid levels around the brain, and as you can imagine I’m so nervous and worried.
My partners mum says it runs in the family etc so that does put me at ease slightly (My partners head was off the scale apparently when he was a baby and still is very massive!)

I’m just totally worried as my DS already has Multicystic Dysplastic Kidney (which is all fine!) but just feel like it’s another thing to contend with!

He’s doing amazing developmentally - nearly rolling, chuckling, smiling all the time, feeds (formula) amazingly, such a happy little boy.

The scan is a week today.

Has anyone experienced anything similar?!

Thanks so much x
