[quote=Anonymous]None of my kids were 99th percentile but IMHO childhood percentiles really are not entirely predictive. My kids: DS19: was always 75th percentile for height and skinny, delayed puberty, now 6’1” DD17: was always 30th percentile for height and barely on the charts for weight, now 5’7” DS15: was always 60th percentile for height and 50th percentile for weight, now 5’10” and pretty sure he is about done growing So- was somewhat predictive for my sons but not my DD. DH is 5’11” and I am 5’5”. Both families really average-ish (nobody super tall but also nobody super short) Among their friends, we’ve know tall kids who just stopped growing early, ending up pretty average in height. But usually their parents are not tall. [/quote]
