Length and size of the baby

[first_time_mummy]

This might give you something else to think about .......... and laugh as I did.

Most babies seem to be between 50 and 52cm when they are born. Fully grown I am 152cm which means that most babies are 1/3 or more my height when they are born ............. pretty amazing that they can grow that long inside and pretty amazing just how little in comparision I've grown since then.

Gave me the giggles when I first realised this statistic

LOL, i must say i was shocked when i actually thought about what you just said...yiikes lol Thats already a 3rd of its height for life....thats amazing...

Meadsie, that made me chuckle too as I'm only 158cm.

Sally, Tristan was a big boy for premmie! Might have a basketballer!!

First time mummy, my 1st and 3rd were both 51cm and 2nd was 48.5cm.

Another height fact...if you measure the height of your 2yr old and times it by 2 that is approximately how tall they will be as an adult...or so I have read!

Hi Jas Thats a statstic I've heard too.

However will need to wait quite a few years to see if it comes through. My friends kids (who we did measure) are still only littlies with heaps of growing to grow. Problem is by the time they get to fully grown we probably won't remember what they were at 2
