[quote=Anonymous]My son is 8 in and in the 2nd percentile for height. When he was 3ish we had him do a round of testing (bone scan, etc.), because he had fallen off his curve from when he was 1-2, but everything came back normal and he's since stayed on his curve. We have a pretty laid back pediatrician, so she hasn't recommended going to an endocrinologist, growth hormone, etc. but I wanted to see if that's the norm? Online calculators usually show him projected to be 5' 4" ish eventually, which I think we can all agree culturally isn't the easiest thing, but just wanted to hear from other parents who BTDT what was recommended to them. FWIW mom is average height and Dad is on the short side but 5' 8". [/quote]
