[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I don't think you are overthinking it to the extent that it is worth asking the pediatrician. I have a similar kid (actually he's 14) and we are little worried. There are tests you can do to rule out potential issues. Of course having a short stature isn't in itself an issue--but if he has changed his growth pattern or falls really out of step with siblings or parents' height, it is worth asking about. FWIW, I am average and my husband is very tall and it seems likely that my son will be very short. It is surprising (genetics are funny) but I am reassured that there is nothing wrong and really nothing to do.[/quote] I know this is old but I was curious how tall your son ended up? We are seeing an endocrinologist this upcoming week.[/quote]
