Holy mother of giant babies-she grew 10 inches the first year!

Is that normal? I asked the dr. and he just shrugged and said, "Who cares? She looks great!" She was 22 inches at birth, and now she's 31 1/2 and 30 lbs.

At this rate, she's going to be 7 feet tall when she starts school. Oy.

    Yep DS grew 10 inches in a year too- 21 inches to 31 inches.  He is really tall and skinny, only 21 pounds.

    I'm going to guess that's normal! :) DD grew about 9.5 inches but she actually dropped from 95% in height to 85 or 90% (can't remember what exactly).

    I'm not sure what's "normal", but DS was 18 inches at birth and 29 1/2  inches at his 1 year appt.  The 50th percentile line on a baby growth chart looks like almost 10 inches exactly.

    Yay for growing babies, though!
