Had a private growth scan and all looked well except head is measuring 4 weeks ahead (96th centile) and tummy 95th centile. Femur length is 50th centile. It's a girl.

Sonographer wasn't remotely concerned. And neither was I until I stupidly googled.

All sorts of horrible things came up like macrocephaly. I understand it can be a normal familial thing but other DCs have relatively small heads.

Anyone come across this and all has been well?

I'm a worrier Hmm

Hey I know this is an old thread but hoping someone reaches out to me. So I'm 27 weeks and had a growth scan. 70th centile for head and only 15th for abdomen legs are average. She is measuring only 10th centile and im freaking out due to these measurements. They said they arent concerned about the measurements yet only the weight! Can someone please shed some light pls x
