At the GP today DS was playing with the scales so the nurse said she may as well note his height and weight because it's been two years ages since it was updated.

He started chattering about his lunch and what he was going to have for dinner and she sort of sniffed and remarked "yes ... he looks like he's the sort who enjoys his food."

I know I'm BU to have taken a throwaway remark to heart but she then commented that he's on the 75th centile for weight but only 25th for height and I should "keep an eye on that".

He's 3.10yo, 18kg and 100cm tall.

AIBU to think that's relatively normal and not at all worrying?

My DD is 3.6, 92cm and just under 12kg.

She has just learned the phrase 'the best things come in small packages'...

I'm loving the range of heights, weights and sizes. Who needs charts and graphs when you have RL evidence of how wide ranging 'normal' is.

That is exactly why you have charts and graphs, which were drawn from RL. Wink
