Awww but what a cute big head it is Lu! All the pics I've seen of him are gorgeous!
People always comment on Benjy's big head too, although we've never had the medical tests etc, it does look pretty big in proportion to the rest of him! ------------- Mel, Mummy to E: 6, B: 4 and:

Ethan has a huge head too, and my poppa was danish, they call the danes square heads, and Ethan lives up to that, the back of his head also has a flat spot, just to make it worse, GO BABYS WITH BIG HEADS,,,YAY ------------- http://alterna-tickers.com">

Yearh! Hubby was known as "the head" when he was a wee one! He turned out OK... well, I guess he'd say so anyway! I think James is just a brainy baby! ------------- Andie |

| Was his head large when he was born, or just developed in size over time since then? |

36cm is pretty big at birth Lu! I have giant head babies too. Maya's was 36.5cm at birth. The gremlins were 34.5 and 32.5 but they were early and they now have giant football heads  ------------- Maya Grace (28/02/03)

| Idea of a baby with a big head does not really appeal. At least not for birth. Heres hoping my baby has a normal size head that fits easily and doesnt hurt much. |

i thought his head was small and according to the peads at the hospital it was normal although james was 7 pound 2oz at brith so it did look a little large ------------- <a href="http://lilypie.com"><img src="http://b4.lilypie.com/nLJ5p13.png" alt="Lilypie 4th Birthday Ticker" border="0" /></a> |
