As parents, we are naturally very concerned about the height and weight of our babies, because when we see that our babies are shorter than other children of the same age, overweight or underweight, mothers are very worried that it may be due to the baby's lack of nutrition or other reasons. Nowadays, some parents see their 2-year-old babies being short in height and ask what to do if they are short in height?
1. Lack of nutrition causes dwarfism, and timely supplementation of nutrition is necessary
A two-year-old baby has a height between 78.3cm and 99.5cm, and a weight between 9kg and 17kg. Of course, each baby's development is different, and their body and weight also vary. If there are no other abnormal conditions in the baby's body at this time and all aspects of development are normal, it doesn't matter if they are shorter in height. If the short stature is caused by a lack of nutrition, it is necessary to supplement the baby's nutrition in a timely manner.
2. Doing more exercise is beneficial for growing taller
A 2-year-old baby's short height is also related to genetics. In fact, mothers don't need to worry about their baby's height at this time. Just pay attention to their baby's diet and let them have the habit of going to bed early and getting up early. You can also do some simple exercises with your baby on a regular basis, which can help them grow their body.
3. Calcium supplementation is necessary for physical growth
When babies are growing up, mothers should remember to supplement their calcium intake, eat more protein rich foods, and ensure that babies have sufficient sleep. They can also give babies more milk and a balanced diet of meat and vegetables. Remember not to give your baby some health supplements just because of their short stature, as this can have an impact on their development.
