Increased head circumference. Increased head circumference is when the measured distance around the widest part of the skull is larger than expected for the child's age and background. A newborn's head is usually about 2 cm (centimeters) larger than the chest size. Between 6 months and 2 years, both measurements are about equal. After 2 years, the chest size becomes larger than the head.
The optimal size for a newborn is around 4,000 grams, or roughly 8.8 pounds, according to Dr. Kramer. The average baby in the study was found to be smaller than optimal. In 1990, the average birth weight was 3,441 grams, and in 2005 it fell to 3,389 grams, according to the study.
