Anyone had a high percentile baby and did they ever slow down?

DS was on the 98th percentile for height and weight when he was born and is still on it at almost 4 months and in 9-12 months clothes, me and DH aren't particularly tall ourselves so wondering if we should expect him to slow down eventually?

No lol. My daughter is just 12, same height as me with bigger feet. She's always been rounder and taller than everyone else. Not fat just a bigger shape. I think she's just about done now though and will probably end up fairly average. Unfortunately she'd rather be average now, she has F cup boobs....at 12!!!! And she is very curvaceous and a size 10-12. Very hard to get her to celebrate her body (she's super strong and can cycle 20 miles just on a whim without going out regularly) when she's so uncomfortable in it 😭 She will be fine when everyone catches up but it's a very awkward stage right now.

@CooDeGrass oh he's not been seen by a HV since 10 days old and the nurse that did his vaccines complemented his chunky thighs so no worries about handwringing from them

Didn’t stop a lot of handwringing from health visitor joys of a covid baby, HV don't care anymore
