[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Here is the formula. Add the mother's height to the father's height in either inches or centimeters. Add 5 inches (13 centimeters) for boys or subtract 5 inches (13 centimeters) for girls. Divide by 2. Source: https://www.mayoclinic.org/healthy-lifestyle/childrens-health/expert-answers/child-growth/faq-20057990[/quote] I just hope my kids aren't any taller than this predicts, even though I know we will have tall kids. I am 5'8" and my DH is 6'5". This calculation puts my DD at 5'10" and my DS at 6'3". Though if I run this calculation for my DH's parents, he should not be above 6 feet tall. So clearly genetics doesn't follow the rules! [/quote]
