Hi There,

Just wondering if anyone knows about Microcephaly as I just got a copy of a letter from the Endorinologist and he thinks my son has significant Microcephaly. I have been watching videos on it and reading up about it and it can be anything from Learning Disabilities, Mild Developmental Delays to Severe Developmental Delays. Growth retardation primidal dwarfism my son is very small.

Looking forward to any replies.

The word "microcephaly" just means that his head is smaller than it should be. You'll need professional guidence as to what it means for your DS, not the anecdata of randoms from the net.
