to be concerned that DS's feet have now not grown in 22 weeks? (He's 3)

Know it's not really an AIBU but couldn't find anywhere else to put it?

So, as it says in the title, he is just 3 and I have had his feet measured 12 weeks after last fitting, then 6 later, then 4 after that. No change!

I am concerned. Am I being a mentalist?

It could also be dodgy measuring though. I've been shoe shopping with DS and got him measured in Clarks, then in John Lewis straight afterwards and had two different measurements.

My DS2's diddy feet have grown only half a size (and only just that, really - he's only just one the half size) in a year, from 4 ot 4.5. He is quite wee, although I am expecting him to have a huge growth spurt soon, as he is an eating machine, so not sure where it is all going...

In last week's hot weather, I put him in last year's sandals, which are a 4, on the grounds that they would be OK as open toes Lacking funds to buy new ones right now, so hoping he will have growth spurt soon and properly go up to a new size...

DS is 2 and a size 8.5 - I wish his would stop growing!

Seriously though, small feet never hurt anyone, so I wouldn't worry about it

my ds2 has only just got a new pair of shoes and is now an 8. He had his last new pair August.

There is far more in life to stress over than feet not growing.

DS 4 is in the same shoes I bought him in September. I had him measured last week and he is still a 6 1/2

no need to be concerned, they do start to slow down as they get older.
