Baby helmets?

Not sure where to post this:

I have a 7 month old with a 15.5in head, in the 5th percentile. We just got a bike trailer for her to ride in this spring and summer and can't find a bike helmet small enough for her. By spring her head should be 16in or 40cm. Does anyone have a suggestion on a very small bike helmet for my DD? TIA!

    My only suggestion would be to wait. Your baby doesn't have the back or neck strength to support a helmet until she is at least a year old. I understand wanting to get out and about with her, but it isn't worth the risk.

    I'd put my in a bike trailer, it's not different than being strapped into a jogging stroller.  Walmart has a wide range of sizes for kids, so I'd check there.
