I'm just trying to establish the significance of head circumference in baby's growth.
ANy help is appreciated.
For many years the measurements were taken and analysed which gave way for a standardized chart seperate for boys and girls from birth to 18 months. With the help of these charts ,the paedeatricians compare the measurements during a routine check up and any deviation from normal is checked. The measurement of head circumference is very important as it can help in the early detection and treatment of problems related to brain.
