Baby head percentiles

Is there a particular point for head percentiles when a csection is likely to be recommended/a better option for birth? Ours has consistently been 95th + and I'm wondering if vaginal birth may not be possible?

Are you having extra scans for some reason? I just had a growth scan at 32 weeks and baby showing at 95 centile for head circumference and I can imagine there might be a fuss about it… BUT my first also had a big head, which I didn’t know about before birth, and she came out fine! Some babies are just bigger than others, it’s all normal. Try not to worry. Your body is magic :)
