[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]DH and I are close to the same height. Interestingly enough, DD is projected to be taller than DH by 1". I also know of one short male/medium female couple where the daughter was taller than the father.[/quote] What do you mean "projected to be taller than"? How are you projecting this?[/quote] Not the pp, but pediatricians will often project a child's expected adult height. I have a child who is in the 1% for height so it's something we discuss with the doctor often. If it's not an issue, your pediatrician may not make a projection. Mine has projected my dc's height to be 5'4"-5'5". It's based on the parents height and the path they're following on the growth chart.[/quote] Or you can just follow your child's growth on the CDC chart yourself and see if they stay on their growth curve, where they'll be at 18.[/quote]
