How tall is he? Are both parents short? In all honesty if he eats well and sleeps well then don’t worry about it. Some babies are small and blossom even as a teen. My husband said he was always really small as a kid and shot up in height when he was around 14/15.

@Fary both parents tall, he’s just a picky eater! stil relying on formula for calories! at my wits end

Have you tried not giving him the formula to see if he eats more? They usually go through a phase around this time of being picky with food

Don’t be daft it’s nothing you’re doing he’ll grow when and how much he’s supposed to, if you’re both tall this is almost guaranteed that he’ll have a growth spurt at some point. My son is the 20th percentile for height, not worried at all 😊

Our little boy is the same he’s got tiny legs too😂 he also doesn’t really eat food and relys on formula still. I’m 5 8 and my partner is 6 3 but we both didn’t have growth spurts till we were basically in high school!

@Natalya oh so good to know!! how were you guys at school?

@Lor thank you for being reassuring :) xx

I was average size till like year 5/6 where I became one of the tallest😂 and my partner was apparently quite short till high school his nan always goes “he went bed one night and woke up double the size”😂😂😂
