[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My 5 year old is short...5th percentile. I am 5'1, husband is 5'8. Our other two kids are holding onto the 50th percentile, probably b/c we each have a random tall relative. Nobody suggested an endocrinologist. Being short is tough for men. Sure there are successful short men but its a tough place for a guy IMO [/quote] +1. It's very hard for a guy and OP should bring her kid to an endo. She just shouldn't expect that the endo will pump her kid full of hormones that could harm him so he can grow an extra inch or two. She's a woman of average height who married a man whose height is below average...and now there kid is below average...nothing surprising about the situation.[/quote]
