Tylers head was 35cm born and 40cm at 6wks. He sleeps on his side so he doesn't have 'flathead'
dispite his rather bigger head i still find it hard to find hats to fit hm]]> Fri, 28 May 2010 21:17:28 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=33602&PID=1046017&title=how-big-is-your-childs-head#1046017 <![CDATA[How big is your childs head. : Jades head was 29cm, she was born...]]> https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=33602&PID=1045817&title=how-big-is-your-childs-head#1045817 Author: meggls

I only did knitting a couple of times when i was younger. My MIL taught me to crochet on saturday and i made a hat yesterday. it measures 31cm so i guess that is premmie size then. I think crochet is pretty easy but i couldn't work it out from the instructions on the net, i needed MIL to actually show me what to do but once she did it was easy.

Esme's head was 35 cm born and was about 40cm when she was 12 weeks. No idea how big it is now but she's sleeping so I won't go and measure it.

I just knitted a hat and the pattern for 6-12 months was for a head approximately 48 cm.

From premmie up to 5 yrs please.
