We went to a theme park with friends today and their similarly aged DD (4 a few weeks ago) was 20cm taller than my DD Shock

My nephew is 3.2yrs and is 80cm

My just turned five year old is 124 and the tallest in his class. He's always been on the 97th percentile (or whatever the top one is!) but I'm 6ft and husband is 6ft 6.

Ds at 110cm is only in age 4-5 years clothing though which is his age basically

LissaLoves · 10/04/2016 22:25

Teen she still fits in 2-3 clothes. I have her red book but it's in her room so don't want to risk waking her by getting it tonight and I can't find a chart online that my phone will download.

My boy is 116cm and just turned 3. He is in size 6-7 clothes. Ridiculous.

Dd1, she'll be 5 in September is 123cm. She too gets mistaken for a much older child.

Ds is 108 cm and is 4 next month. He seems a bit bigger than most in his nursery class.

elQuintoConyo · 10/04/2016 22:19

DS is 4.4 and 110cm. His best friend is 116. In his class they range from 98-116 ish. DS is bang on 50% for his age (and weight!).

Do you still have the baby health book for your DD? There will be charts in it giving percentiles and you can see where your DD fits (and whether it is where she was when younger).

Alternately, does your DD wear age 3-4 / 4-5 clothes? In which case she is averagish. If 2-3 she is smaller, and if age 5-6 then taller.

Ds is approx 115cm. Mistaken often for 5/6year old. He's a young 4 (dob Jan) and gets a hard time with people expecting more from him. It makes me feel awful. And angry with other people

CwtchMeQuick · 10/04/2016 22:17

DS is 4 next month, I measured him this morning and he's 105cm. There's a lot of variation in his nursery class

Artandco · 10/04/2016 22:17

Recently measured, he's almost 5, 110cm

glenthebattleostrich · 10/04/2016 22:15

At 4 dd was about 105cm.

She's almost 6 and 129cm. She's nearly as big as me!

Chilver · 10/04/2016 22:15

My dd (4 last month) is about 102cm. Friends exactly the same age are a lot taller (one of them) or a lot smaller(another). That's what the centile charts are for - shows the variety!

BikeRunSki · 10/04/2016 22:15

DD is nearly 4 and s half, and is 110 cm. She's huge.
