2yr old height

[shazbang]

Does anybody out there know if its true that your height as a two year old is half of your final adult height?
Thanks

So they say, its worth taking note at 2yrs and checking it out in years to come eh lol

[Buenchico]

Yes.

An adult's height is roughly twice their height at 2� years

yes thats a rough guide. Its looking like my son will be 6'4" at least!

The red baby books nowadays have a formula in them to get a rough idea too, i havnt seen my sons for a while so cant recall seeing it in his.

Yes, it worked for me, or rather for jno jnr, 3ft 1in to 6ft 3in.

Hi,I wouldn't really worry about that - my husband was tiny right until he hit his teens - he's now 6ft 5!! I was pretty tall for my age then stopped growing at 12 years old, I'm only 5ft 2 :-(
