Should I get s second MRI for my son?


My son is now 14 months old and has always had a big head (even in the womb lol) so since it was so high on the charts his dr sent us to get a ultra sound of his head when he still had his soft spot at about 6 months old. The ultra sound came back normal and nothing was wrong then at his 12 month appt his head grew a little so his dr checked for a soft spot and it wasnt completely closed yet so he said it was normal for it to grow when the soft spot hasnt closed yet but for us to come back in a month just to make sure so we did and it was the same size when the nurse checked it so the dr didn't even come in and said he wasn't worried but we would check one last time in a month so we just went in a couple weeks ago and it did grow a little and his soft spot is closed now so now his dr wants to do a mri to make sure we aren't missing something i just don't know if it makes sense to do one right now or not.....:(
