How tall is your 2 year old?

My son has just turned 2 and I've just measured him and done his weight to keep an eye for his car seat limits. He's 97cm tall which seems really tall for his age and is off the top of the centiles.

He's high on his weight centile at 15.2kg, he's sitting on the 98th centile but I don't think it's particularly concerning considering how much taller he is?

Anyone else got a super tall toddler and no idea how? 😂 I'm only 5'4 and his dad is 5'10 so we're not exactly giants!

Hello. My son is going to be 15months next week and is just 75cm. Should I be concerned? People are saying that he is short

My DD1 was 90cm tall on her second birthday, she's still rather tall at 4 although he Dad is 6ft2 so I guess it shouldn't be too much of a shock. There's a note in her red book that says their adult height is twice their height at 2 years old, not sure about the red books of subsequent children - I haven't checked.

My dh is 6ft 4 and despite me being just over 5ft and petite all my children are really tall, not sure how tall my 2 year old is but taller than all the other 2 year olds i know! As long as they're in proportion I wouldn't worry.
