Ben soon made himself at home in the waiting room sitting on Aunty Anna's knee to have his dinner...on the menu today was chickpea lasagne and rice pudding and...we managed not to cover Aunty Anna in food! Ben said hello to another fellow helmet wearer and then it was time for us to go through.

He started off well with the measuring and was quite happy but then some measurements needed checking and Ben was none too happy, even less happy when we popped him in a bumbo (chunky thighs - they get wedged!). Measurements were finally complete and he has dropped another 3mm!!!!!!!!! So now we are down to 18mm to go!
Rachel did some more adjustments to the helmet - letting his forehead out so that it can continue to even up and she gave him some more space at the sides as he was starting to get bumps above his ears. This really is the best time for Ben to be in his helmet as he is growing so much and it is very helpful that he continues to sit at the 98th centile. Keep growing Benji!
Back down to Ross at the start of June!
