1 year old height?

[janesxx]

ive searched what the average height for a 1 year old is but everywhere gives diferent answeres, my baby was born tiny at 5'5 and only about 16'' long, at 1 year old he is 28'' just wondering if this is between the averages? alot of people comment that hes short but ive seen alot of babies shorter, I am 5ft and his dads 6'2 so could go either way!

Are you in uk?
Do you not have a red book?

Looking at the red book the middle centile is 74cm / 2ft 5

yeah I have red book but I don't have it with me, so if hes 2ft 4 is that aboit 25th centile?

Hi janexx
My 1st DS was 6wks prem W 5'7 and was 14inch long by the time he was 1 His W was over 2stone and he was 33inch tall, at 2yrs he was 2stone 8, and 36inch tall He'll be 3 this aug and is around 2 1/2 stone and is approx 40inch tall. Every1 inc docs say he's really big for his age, allways have been told this, I was told by the time their 2 1/2 they've reached half the height they will be as adults, I think your DS is prob average, dont worry, they have growth spurts, when I was around 8yrs old I was half a head taller than my brother, who's 2 1/2yrs older than me, now i'm 5ft 7 he's 5ft 11. Also My DH is a quarter inch shorter than me, I'm sure both my boys will tower above us both.

2ft4 puts him just under 25th so just on the smaller side of average

aw thankyou that makes me feel alot better
