Height and weight for DD age 9

[PurpleChick2]

Should I be concerned about my daughters height and weight?

she is very tall for her age, in year 4 and easily the tallest in her year, as well as at her after school clubs. She is often mistaken for a child several years older

she has just turned 9, is 147cm and weights 6 stone / 41kg

she eats and drinks normally, no different to my other kids. Has a sweet tooth but we don’t have treats in the house really (otherwise the kids would live of sweets and crisps)

My 12 year old weighs less and is slightly shorter.

im 5’7”. Husband is over 6ft.

Does she sound ok? What do your 9 year olds weigh and how tall are they?

I was quite tall (but my best friend/cousin was 2 years older than me and also tall so no one really noticed or commented in my social group.) I was taller than my older brother for a time, I finished growing at 11-12 years old. I feel so weird looking back at pictures of myself at that age because I think of myself as being a child but I am very much woman sized! I was oblivious to it at the time. I don’t remember anyone making comments, but I think I would have liked being considered tall (because my cousin liked it too). I’m generally considered average height as an adult, (though I am an inch or two above average).
