My LO always moves into the Carter's clothes about a month behind. So she just moved in to the 9 month (6-9m) clothing at 7 months. And she's 50th percentile for height and perfectly healthy. I wouldn't worry a bit.

Nope, dont' worry about it! LO is in 4% for height. There is nothing you can do to change it. LO is 14 months and still in some 12m stuff. She actually has a pair of 6-9m pants on the other day and they were fine.

My son is 2 years old and 3 months old. He just moved out of 12m clothes about a month ago and still wears 12m shorts on a regular basis. Typically he is fitting in the 12-18m level right now. Clothes aren't the best way to do this. Just tell them the doctor says that she is right on track.

My LO was on the shorter side at 12 months (28-29") and he fit into Carter's 12 month clothing and 6-12 month clothing at The Gap and Old Navy. We always got comments on how short he was. In the last couple of months though he had a growth spurt and shot up 2-3" and now people comment on how he's tall!

My brother was pretty small his entire childhood, then as a teenager he shot up and as an adult he's about 6'1. Of course my mom and dad are both tall, so he did have genes on his side.

I know it's silly but when my boy went from 80th percentile to 60th I started getting worried he would be 5'8" like my dad instead of 6'1" like my husband. I know height can be a thing for men and being shorter than his dad might be hard but I also know that my son is perfect no matter what his height is. Try to do as I am and focus on making him feel so good about himself that he will feel 10 feet tall no matter how little or big he is.
