  1. Baby's height is related to many factors, such as nutrition, sleep, exercise, genetics, etc. If parents are tall but the baby is not tall, it is likely due to postnatal reasons. Usually, it is important to guide babies not to be picky eaters and to have balanced nutrition. In addition to their daily diet, it is recommended to give them plenty of milk and consume some health supplements. They can also go to the hospital and have a doctor prescribe some.

  2. Baby's diet should be diversified and reasonably matched. Snacks should not be given to babies as it can affect their appetite. To ensure a balanced nutrition for the baby, pay attention to the combination of meat and vegetables when eating. Sleep is very important to ensure that babies have sufficient sleep time every day. If combined with some appropriate exercise, it can naturally promote the secretion of growth hormone and grow taller.

  3. Another important factor that affects a baby's height is calcium. Parents should supplement their babies with calcium tablets and vitamins from a young age. They can also take their babies to bask in the sun more often, which can promote the body's absorption of calcium. In addition, parents cannot force their baby's height, nor can they constantly compare their baby's height to others, as this will affect their baby's confidence. Let nature take its course.
