[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]If you have/had a big toddler (head and shoulders taller than peers) did they end up a big adult or did they follow genetics of their parents? We have one outlier kid - DH is 5’10” and I am 5’8”. We have a 5 year old who is 52 pounds and 51” tall. Has always been 99th percentile since he was born. Wondering if he will stay like this or go back down to the norm given that DH and I are pretty average sized. [/quote] No and yes. Both of my kids were 90% percentile as toddlers, but during elementary school they slowed down and son (now 21) ended up being just a bit above male average height 5’10”. Daughter (18) ended up being taller for women, 5’8”. For reference 6’2” father, 5’3” mother. Interestingly Dad was not a big toddler, mom was.[/quote]
