Toddlers: 12 - 24 Months

Does anyone else have a giant for a kid?

DD is at the top of the charts for height! 33 1/2 (95%) inches the Dr. remeasured her because she didn't think it was right... sure enough it was!

She weighs 24.1 lbs (47%) 

 

She grew nearly 3 inches since her 15 month appointment!

  • Yep, DS is 33 inches and 32lbs. He's 14 months. He's already in 2t. I bought his shorts in 3t for this summer. I'm sure they'll still be big but I want to make sure they fit.

  • Oh good... As long as she isnt alone! She was a peanut a birth... 6lbs 9 oz and 18.25 inches! 

    I am hoping 2t will fit her for the summer!... she has no butt so everything falls down!

  • Spider Pig was 35.14 lbs and 35.5" tall at his 18 month appointment at the beginning of this month. 

    He wears a size 3T and 8.5 wide for shoes.

  • Yep, DD was 34in. at her 18 month appt, and I'm pretty sure she's grown another inch since then.  She's still only 24lbs--she's a string bean.
  • DS 33" and 30lbs at 15 mos.  you are not alone :)

  • DD was 34" and 25 lbs at her 18 month appt on Friday.  She's grown 3 inches in 4.5 months.  DH is 6'4", so I'm hoping she gets height from his side.  I'm scraping 5'4" and I'm considered tall in my family.

  • A skinny giant- 98% for height and 10% for weight.

    We have to buy euro sized clothing because the american sizing is so wide that the pants all fall down or have to be taken in.

  • Yes.  My DD is almost 20 months old, but could pass as a 2.5 year old or small 3 year old it seems.  Based on the scale at home, she is 30 lbs.

    At her 18 month appointment, she was 35 inches tall (100%+) and 28 lbs.  

     Her stomach is huge, but her limbs are long and not chubby.  I think she is going to take after my tall (6'3") husband.  I am only 5'6"

  • I don't know if he is a giant, but he was 32 inches at his 12 month appointment and 25 pounds. He is gonna be a tall one.

    DD #1 passed away in January 2011 at 14 days old due to congenital heart disease
    DD#2 lost in January 2012 at 23 weeks due to anhydramnios caused by a placental abruption
  • Not height wise, but ds' head is in the 97th%.
  • Considering my 15 month old is nearly as tall as Punk's 3 year old (and he was the tallest of the other toddlers at our gtg), I think he's pretty giant.

  • My DS is off the charts for height and always has been. Actually when I tried to update his height on his growth chart last month it told me I couldn't input a number that high for his age.

    At 21 months he's 38.5in and about 35lb.

    He's back on the charts for weight but wears a size 4T - 5T and a size 10 shoe

  • Yup, my 18 month old is almost 3 feet tall and almost 30 lbs.  He gets mistaken for a 2.5 year old all the time.  I thought I was safe buying 2T winter clothes but he's steadily moving to 3T already.  I have no idea what size to buy for summer!
  • Yup, DD was almost 35 inches at her 18 month appointment, which is 100th percentile.  She also grew almost 3 inches from her 15 month appointment to her 18 month appointment.

    We have lots of giants in our families- my brother is 6'2'', my cousin is 6'4''.
