Icon5 Different head sizes

Please tell me I am not the only one whose twins have completely different head sizes. Graham's head is SO much bigger than Parker's. Does anyone else have twins with totally different head sizes?
How long does it take for the one with the smaller head to average out to have a head more similar to the other twins head size...

Default Re: Different head sizes

My girls have always had different head sizes...of course, Callie is also 4 inches taller and about 7-8 pounds heavier...she has a huge head compared to Emma (who has always been little).

Edited to say that Emma's soft spot didn't go away until she was almost 2 because her head was so little...Callie's soft spot was hard to detect by the time she was 1!

Harper's head has always been bigger and is exaggerated by the fact that she has the chubby cheeks!!

Their measurements have somewhat evened out, but H still looks like she has the much bigger head b/c of those cheeks.

Are they about the same weight? H and J are and that's why I think the measurements are so close.

I would guess this would account for the difference in head size.
