Thanks everyone. Great idea to start taking profile photos.

: My second child, Enoch, did have his jaw grow

: Start taking pictures of your 4 month old
: profile and you can then see any progress.
: That is what we did with Enoch. We did not
: notice any changes until about 1 year old.
: Hope this helps.
: All the best.

: How many people have experienced the lower

: growing quickly and "catching up"
: with the rest of the face? I have 2 kids
