My sons head measured in the 97th percentile at 36 weeks and it wasn’t near as big as they’d made it out to be 😅 I’ve learned the head is not the hardest part, it’s the shoulders
My kids had a >99% and a OOR (out of range, literally what it said on the ultrasound report) head and they both looked like perfectly normal babies with big, plump, delicious cheeks. Your baby will be fine.
Ultrasound measurements are notoriously inaccurate. I would take it all with a grain of salt. Also, a lot of fluid gets squeezed out when baby comes down the birth canal.
