BIG HEAD?

[Raeleighs_Mommy]

When I had an ultrasound at 36w5d they tech was like "not to scare you but your baby has a big head!" Should that scare me? Like if it was ABNORMALLY big they would have said something right? Do you think ahe just meant a kinda bigger head for newborn in general or what? You dont think its so big she will look different right? (And I am goin to ask dr at next appointment monday, just wondering id any of you had been told this?)

Thanks ladies.. im just getting nervous.. and that just came out of the blue and I was like wtf does that even mean exactly?! Ya know? Like does she just have a "bigger than most babies" head orrrrr an "ODDLY" big head. :/ lol ughhhhhhh I just always find something to stress myself out about!! :(

my third baby had a big head they told me in the ultrasound and again at his delivery.  a big head can affect the delivery process.  in my case he was still born vaginaly, though my doctor had to assist in moving my cervix so that it would not rip. try not to worry. im sure things will be fine. my baby boy looks normal,  im sure your baby will aswell.

Aww dont worry im sure she is fine! Some ppl are rude...

I know if there was anything WRONG they would have known or told me... im just neevous why they would make a point to say she has a big head... I dont want my baby to grow up with a oddly big head... ya kno what I mean? :/ lol

Lol my bf had giant shoulders and got stuck when he was born :P lucky me. Our daughter is already growing so big I feel like she'll be a giant baby too!

if u r taking calcium tab stop them sometimes big head related to excessive amount of calcium and yes i think ur baby will be smarter than his peers that what ive noticed i dont even think its aproblem good luck and takecare♡

Omg im so scared about that too, my bf has a big head and so does his nephew and i make fun of him all the time, im hoping the baby doesn't have one that makes me nervous i.told him i gotta push this baby out...

Dont worry sup much about it hopefully she is just messing with you, maybe your dr will get another ultrasound im sure everything is normal!

Sorry, but this made me giggle.   My husband had a GIANT alien head according to his mom (and the baby pictures I've seen).  He grew into it & he's really smart! Lol

But take what the tech said with a grain of salt.  If it is a man, he is just stupid & doesn't know that his words really affect pregnant women. And if it is a woman maybe she has never been pregnant or has a sour sense of humor.

Chances are your baby is fine.  The growth spurts over the next 3 weeks should catch up baby's body. Ask your doctor to clarify. If baby does in fact have a bigger head (like my husband did), just start doin those perineal massages!
