36 weeks “leggy baby” but short parents?!

I had a growth scan at 31 weeks and the sonographer commented on long legs and when I saw the midwife today she felt my bump and also said he’s “all legs”! However the growth chart shows he’s in proportion... albeit he is overall on the larger side (just above 95th centile for body weight). I’m 5 ft 2 and dad is 5 ft 8 and my parents are pretty short too... his parents are perhaps a touch taller but not by an awful lot. Very confused as to where these legs have come from considering our heights!

My partner's parents are about 5'9" and 6'2".
He's 6'10".

Sometimes the lanky gene comes out of nowhere 😂
