9 months and head circumference randomly jumped above normal
Daughter was born end of June. I was induced a month early because my dad passed away and my body shut down on me. We just had her 9 month check up yesterday and I was told her head circumference is not just no longer following her curve but it exceeds normal. She showed me on the chart and If I had to put a number to it I would say 108 percentile. I didn’t get the actual measurement but I’m super stressed about the whole thing. Prior to
This she was around 75-80 percentile. My middle had a bigger head but not this big. An ultrasound was ordered but ultrasounds are super behind where I live so who knows how long it will be. Has anybody else experienced this? What was the outcome?
I apologize for any spelling errors. I am also experiencing temporary blindness/vision blurring for 3 months and am waiting to see a specialist to get that sorted out as well.

My baby's head is large too. Pretty sure it's just genetics. Don't worry!
It’s also possible there was measurement discrepancies/errors in any of those readings, aka last reading might not have been on the head correctly and measured smaller than it was causing it to “look” like a jump
