Met my Hv for ds2 today, he is 16 days old. He was 8lb 10 at birth and now 9lb 13, so ebf going well, he seems quite efficient and can go 4 hrs at night, I have a lot of milk and am leaking everywhere but hoping this will settle.
Anyway, Hv says he is between 75th and 91st centile for weight, but his head circumference is nearer 98th, so his real weight centile is prob also 98th so I'm in for a rough 10 days of constant feeding to get him there.
Is this right? I've never heard this logic before? Can't he just have a big head? just seemed a bit negative?
