Head circumference for 16 month old
Hi doctors my baby was born at 37 weeks weight 2.75 kg and head circumference was 35 cm she is a female baby
I delivered at renowned Cloudnine hospital in Bangalore and my pediatrician always checks her height weight and head circumference during vaccines and never raised any concern ..
Now she turned 16 months she had little cough since my regular pediatrician was out of town i reached to other pediatrician my baby wasn't cooperating while he was measuring her head circumference it showed 45 cms and he said it's 1 cm less for her age
And again he mentioned since I didn't get any of her growth chart or files he can't comment if it's normal or not
But my pediatrician never even once raised concern about it i got very scared and visited today to my old doctor she tried to check baby's head circumference it showed 45.5 her height is 79cm weight is almost 9kg
And head circumference is 45.5 (25 percentile ) is this head circumference something alarming
