Boo! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/adult-height-prediction#post-1568445 Mon, 14 Apr 2014 16:24:13 +0000 HLK208 1568445@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Cool! DD would be 5'3" although her doctor said 5'4" and DS 5'10" </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/adult-height-prediction#post-1568413 Mon, 14 Apr 2014 16:10:24 +0000 Mrs. Jump Rope 1568413@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>According to that calculator, I ahold have been 5'9"</p> <p>I'm only five feet tall! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/adult-height-prediction#post-1568409 Mon, 14 Apr 2014 16:09:44 +0000 winniebee 1568409@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I did a guesstimate of Ts height right now since he hasn't had his 2 yr visit and they are saying 5'7 and that seems about right. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/adult-height-prediction#post-1568405 Mon, 14 Apr 2014 16:08:08 +0000 blackbird 1568405@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@loveisstrange, we can make our kids hang out and start a Tall Gang :) </p> <p>Honestly, i'll probably put her in volleyball because I know that being SO tall can be an awkward thing for a kid, so I want her to excel in something where her height is an advantage. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/adult-height-prediction#post-1568388 Mon, 14 Apr 2014 16:03:31 +0000 Raindrop 1568388@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@loveisstrange: Wow you have a tall DD! :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/adult-height-prediction#post-1568384 Mon, 14 Apr 2014 16:02:27 +0000 loveisstrange 1568384@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@2PeasinaPod: Not really! lol. Im 5'7 and DH is 5'11, both pretty average. We both have very tall siblings though.</p> <p>@Raindrop: Ive heard that too. Doubling her height at 2 would put her at 6'1! lol</p> <p>@blackbird: C has always run 97-100th percentile. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/adult-height-prediction#post-1568328 Mon, 14 Apr 2014 15:44:35 +0000 googly-eyes 1568328@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>LO was also at 96th % at 12m but has dropped to the 89th. We are honestly surprised she's even that tall... Dh barely stayed on the charts at that age (although I was around the 80th+%.)</p> <p>She's still too young for that calculator though! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/adult-height-prediction#post-1568221 Mon, 14 Apr 2014 15:12:28 +0000 blackbird 1568221@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>E is in the 96%-tile at 1 year old. Everything I can find says she'll hit 5'10" at least, too! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/adult-height-prediction#post-1568216 Mon, 14 Apr 2014 15:11:21 +0000 chopsuey 1568216@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>this predicts DD will be 5'8" at 18. I was hoping for 5'9, but 5'8 is good too! :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/adult-height-prediction#post-1568212 Mon, 14 Apr 2014 15:10:23 +0000 MamaMoose 1568212@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Aw man, LO is only 16 months so we can't use it yet. Our doc is always so shocked when LO is still in the 50th% for height at each check up because I'm 5'7" and my husband is 6'6". </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/adult-height-prediction#post-1568209 Mon, 14 Apr 2014 15:09:59 +0000 Mrs. Pen 1568209@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@loveisstrange: whaaaat!! it says he'll be 5'7! omg. no.</p> <p>I am 5'8 and DH is 6'0 - we're both average/tall. But J has always only been less than 25-30th percentile for height and weight. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/adult-height-prediction#post-1568201 Mon, 14 Apr 2014 15:08:28 +0000 Raindrop 1568201@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>So there is a rule of thumb for double your LO's 2 year height and that will be his/her adult height... which for us would have been 5'10" (he was 2'11" at his 2 year appointment)</p> <p>This predictor says 6'0"... very interesting!</p> <p>We are short Asian people so 5'10" is tall already for our family. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/adult-height-prediction#post-1568189 Mon, 14 Apr 2014 15:05:48 +0000 2PeasinaPod 1568189@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Wow! You guys must be tall?</p> <p>LO isn't 2 yet, so I don't think it will work as well for him. He's already much bigger than either of us were at his age by now! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/adult-height-prediction#post-1568183 Mon, 14 Apr 2014 15:01:31 +0000 loveisstrange 1568183@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I just found a neat little calculator and thought it was fun! It predicted C at 5'11 by age 18. Her doctor actually told us the same a few weeks ago (told us to expect at least 5'10).</p> <p><a href="http://www.babycenter.com/child-height-predictor?intcmp=Nav_Global_Tools_heightpredictor&#038;scid=mbtw_post24m_1w" rel="nofollow">http://www.babycenter.com/child-height-predictor?intcmp=Nav_Global_Tools_heightpredictor&#038;scid=mbtw_post24m_1w</a> </p>
