Dandan Pan, Department of Pediatrics, Affiliated Hospital of Guiyang Medical College: Hello parents! If the child is exactly 5 years old, the calculated height positioning: X-1.2SD, father: X-0.4SD, mother: X-0.2SD. we define the height as 2SD lower than the average height (X) of normal children of the same age and sex as dwarfism. your child is short and has not yet reached the standard of dwarfism. Your child is short and has not yet reached the standard for dwarfism. However, he is relatively short compared to the standard deviation of his parents’ height, which is considered to be related to frailty at a young age or may be genetic late growth (if his parents have late growth). Pan Dandan, Department of Pediatrics, Affiliated Hospital of Guizhou Medical University, between the ages of 2 and 5, the child grew 24.3cm in height in 3 years, with an average of 8.1cm/year, which has exceeded the normal growth rate (6-7cm/year) for this age group, suggesting that the child has grown at a normal rate in recent years and has caught up with growth. The child has high energy, normal intelligence, and weight is basically proportional to height. Parents are advised to relax a little and continue to monitor the growth rate. When the growth rate is normal, growth hormone deficiency is not considered clinically. Eating is the most basic physiological need of living organisms. In today’s material abundance, adults are pushing children to eat more often, making them mistakenly think that they are eating for their parents! Parents are advised to let their children experience hunger and the satisfaction of eating after hunger. Start meals at regular intervals and do not wait for them. Tell your child that eating is his own business, he can make the decision, eat well, you can eat snacks, this principle will always be the same. Not wanting to eat means that he is not feeling well, at this time, respect the child’s wishes, at the same time no snacks, no playing, no sports, only lying down, because when he is not feeling well, he needs to rest. In short, our babies are very smart, the process of raising them, is the process of fighting with them!
