[quote=Anonymous]My kids were both in single-digit percentiles until age 7 or so (for DC1… DC2 is younger but seems to be on the same path). Per our ped, - math requires someone to be at the lower percentiles. It does NOT mean anything’s wrong. - their percentiles were low, but consistent. They were consistently at the same spot on the growth curve (i dicates they were growing roughly “normally,” just started at a smaller size - hit all their developmental milestones on time. When very tiny kids don’t hit milestones that could be a worrisome sign. My contrast, we have relatives whose kids were also consistently in low percentiles, but not hitting milestones / other indicators. They were tagged as failure to thrive. [/quote]
