I feel sick with worry at the moment. I just got back from my LOs 9 month medical appointment and everything was fine, apart from chest infection which hes got (more) antibiotics for 
Health visitor didnt mention anything when he was weighed and measured, then she held onto my book and passed it to the doctor when we were called through. I asked her about his weight and she said hes still following 25th centile so hes doing well. I didnt think to ask anything else. The doctor checked him and filled in his book said everything was fine.
well Ive just been looking in the book and his head circumfrence has dropped from 75th centile at his 6 week check to 9th centile today.
The health visitor filled it in on the doctors form and circled it so Im really worried that the doctor didnt notice that bit. His length is on 50th centile and weight on 25th which is pretty much following the typical curves for him. Im really worried cos its such a big drop but I dont know what head circumfrence indicates, I know it must be significant in something or they wouldnt measure it?!
Why didnt they mention it, does anyone know what it is an indicator of? my LO is developing really well so I havent had any worries..... until now! does it mean his brain isnt growing?!
Can someone answer quick cos I dunno if I can fight the urge to google!
