[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]If he is on his curve try not to stress. I stressed for a few years, before finally concluding she was always going to be in the 2nd percentile. 14 years later she still is. I did eventually a second opinion, as I felt I was being put at fault each visit. New Dr. takes one look at me "hmm think it could be genetics?" [/quote] Same here, with my first DD who was and is 5th percentile height/10th weight. She's 6. Perfectly healthy, just very petite. I was also very petite as a child, so it is definitely genetics at play for us. Fortunately, we have a very reassuring pediatrician who has always stressed that this is not an issue, since she is consistently on her growth curve 2nd DD has always been 50th percentile height/weight. Takes after DH.[/quote]
