Have you checked the who charts? I found that my baby's head circumference at 20 weeks was smaller than average for the U.K. But bang on average according to the WHO. Also if you're having a girl they usually have a smaller head circumference but the nhs charts won't differentiate between boys and girls...

I'm having a boy. Where will I find the who chart? Xxx

According to the who your baby's HC would be on the 25th centile, which is ok I think?

It is ok!! I think I'm going to fetal medical centre in London this weekend. I need to see a specialist. I am suffering major anxiety over this I am so scared something is very wrong. If they can confirm 25th I would be ecstatic!

If it makes you feel any better my baby's hc was around 40th centile at 20 weeks, and was 36cm when she was born I think... I remember it was 90tj centile at birth! So these things vary a lot. My rule is: if the doctors aren't worried then I can't worry either!!!
