Hi! Hoping someone can help/reassure. Just had a scan today and these are the baby’s measurements. Really concerned that the head is so much bigger than the legs/arms. Currently 33 weeks - has anyone had similar measurements and it’s all been fine?

Yes! We are a short family with big heads. DD was 5lbs 13oz born but head on 98th centile

Yep, ours is measuring off the 98th centile but everything else is 50th. 5 days overdue and noone seems bothered

My baby had 50th percentile legs and 91st head and tummy. She is perfectly fine. We are a short legged family.

But do ask for reassurance from your midwife Smile

It's quite normal. Body parts grow at different rates. Why are you worried?
