Charlie has an average sized head I think in the 50% while Olive has a bigger head in the 75%. She has a really small face, but a big forehead. Shirts get stuck on them. 
She gets it from me. Big heads run in Koreans!
What about your little one?

Huge. 99th percentile.

My daughters head has always been at least 97th percentile. At her last appointment it was 99.2 percentile lol! Sooo yeah she has a big noggin. I just hope she grows into it so that it doesn't look huge when she is older too. It comes from my husband's side - he's 1/2 Korean!
-
Massive. Like off the charts. More room for brains? Lol
-
Both of my girls have tiny heads. They get it from their dad. lol
-
Yep. He's always been in the 98th percentile for head circumference.
-
Nope! I think around 30-40th%. Felt bigger coming out
-
Yes - she's always been above 90% for head, even though she's in the 20% now for height/weight! I hope she doesn't look bobble-headed.
My vagina is thankful I had a C-section

Yup, she's always been in the 95+ percentile.
-
yep 99+% since birth.
ouch.
-
My LO's head circumference is in the 98th percentile since birth. Every time we have a well baby check up, the doctor always remeasures his head, because according to the nurses' measurements he would be totally off the charts.
Also, doctor told us a rapidly growing head could signal serious problems so he is careful about his measurements.
I guess that explains pushing for 3 hrs.
-
Yep both kids in the 95th+ percentile since birth (yeowcha!)
-
Yeah, J is off the charts, well over the 99th percentile mark. We actually had to go in for head growth checks for the first several months to monitor for hydrocephalus because his noggin is so big. Huge heads run in both sides of the family, though.
Luckily I only pushed for 15 minutes and got a small 1st degree tear. Not sure how that worked out, I'm a petite person - slightly afraid for LO#2!
-
She's always been right in the 50% which I'm okay with! DH and I both have small heads, so I'm just happy she's average
-
Lol it's proportionate to his body. I have a big boy.
-
Nope, her head is small.
-
@FancyGem: That's what I should have said too - he doesn't look like a bobble head! He's 95th height and weight, 99th head. So only slightly top heavy
-
She has a very bigness head. We've been between 95%-off the chart since she was born.
-
Yes, both are big. They get it from me! Some baby clothes have tiny neckholes!! I felt like they were being born all over again when I tried to dress them sometimes.
-
Yes, it's HUGE....we're off the charts.
-
Nope. She's high nineties for height and weight but only 80% for head. So big, but not bigger than the rest of her.
-
Nope, she has a teeny tiny head, which is a family trait.
-
No LO here yet but my vagina is worried for how large of a head they will probably have. I have a larger than average head and DH's nickname among his friends is "Dome Head" (and he has an impossible time finding hats that fit).
When DH was born, one of the first things the doctor told my MIL is that he had the largest head he'd ever seen.
-
My son's head is tiny. It was always in the 25-30% range. My daughter's is in the 50% range so pretty average. But she has a longer face so it looks bigger than it is.
-
Huge, like close to 99th % since he was 1. He's now 3.5, but the last hat I bought for him was 8 yr old sized.
-
Seems like a lot of people have 90+ percentile heads, makes me think they need to adjust the charts!
-
Both kids have about 75th percentile heads!
-
99th percentile here too. She gets her huge head from dad.
I was going to post about shirt fit this morning. I just pulled a ton of clothes from LOs dresser because I can't get them over her head. Maddening. I need to change my approach to shopping.
-
No, smallish head, around 50%
-
Huge head, same as her momma
-
Big to the point the doctor ordered a CT scan to ensure that there was nothing wrong.
