Low Head Circumference
Today my baby boy becomes 9 month old. He was 1 month premature at the time of birth, i.e. born on 36th week. All of his activities are normal. The only things I am concerned about is his Head is a little small (Head Circumference 41.2 cm now) & low weight (7.5kg now). Is there anything to worry about??
