baby's head measures different than body

[nicoleinutah]

ever since my first ultrasound at 6 weeks no doctor has been able to give me an exact due date its always back and forth between a 2 week period. since 14 weeks all my ultrasounds are coming back that my sons head is as big as the earliest due date and his body only as big as the later due date. they havent said anything is wrong but continue to do ultrasounds and thats it. is it normal to measure this way or should i be preparing myself for something to be wrong?

I have a big headed kid in my belly too! My husband and his father and that side of the family have big heads too lol. They are going by my last menstrual cycle for due date

I wouldn't worry too much.  I just had a final ultrasound to check on measurements before delivery.  It was at 39 weeks.  My little one's head was measuring 42 weeks but his body was measuring 39 weeks.  The doctor was not worried at all.

I wouldn't worry unless the doctor brings something up. Baby's head will be larger than their body until they become toddlers and then their bodies start to catch up to their head growth.
