So… you heard the details. So no need to get into that drama again. Here’s the stats:
Length: 28 1/4 inches (50 percentile)
Weight: 19 lbs. (25 percentile)
Head Circumference: 46 cm (75 percentile)
So once again he is right on track with length, a tiny bit behind in weight and his noggin is way ahead of the game. But, hey don’t worry, I’m not stressing. Because I know that his brain is bigger than the average 9 month old’s. And seeing his long, skinny body holding up that big ol’ head kinda reminds me of an orange on a toothpick.
I’M KIDDING… it’s from a movie, people!! hahaha! This kid is going to have to be thick skinned to have a family like mine and parents like us!!!
A large head’s nothing to be ashamed of
Charlie, at his last weigh-in was 10th percentile for weight and I think around 30th for head circumference. He’s a small-fry with a nice sized noggin. Kind of reminds me of one of those caricature drawings you get done at the fair.
“His head’s like Sputnik! Spherical, but quick pointy in parts.”
We are also members of the big head club: 50% weight/ 50% height/ 80% noggin. I also like to think that it is just because she is so smart and has to cram all of those smart brains in her little head!
Your “orange on a toothpick” analogy was hysterical! Do you mind if we use that? :)
M, Of course I don’t mind… it’s from So I Married An Axe Murder… hilarious movie by the way!
