[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]For the most part kids will stay on their growth curve unless there was some kind of severe lack of nutrition or other health problems. Both my older kids were ~60th percentile from six months through age 12. Younger one has been a consistent 90th percentile for the first two years. I was 15th percentile my entire live from infant to adult[/quote] The main thing that throws off growth charts is having puberty earlier or later than typical. That will shift the growth chart backwards or forwards at the time of puberty, because you deviate from the typical track. And nothing wrong with that! But if either or both parents have particularly early or late puberty times, the growth chart tracking may not be as reliable for the kid.[/quote]
