Recently, sugar mom is a little depressed and thinks her 5-year-old daughter is too short. In the past, it was not much different from other people's children, and sugar mom didn't care too much, but recently she saw a pair of twin granddaughters in a neighbor's house, and sugar mom was not calm.
Twin granddaughters are also 5 years old, as big as sugar. Results Both children were around 120cm, and the sugar was less than 1 10cm. The difference is more than ten centimeters, which makes sugar mom very depressed. Is my daughter slow to develop? Why is there such a big difference in the same age?
Later, sugar mom asked several treasure moms in the group and found that most children seemed to be taller than sugar. However, it is not too high, and few girls reach 120cm at the age of 5. But sugar sugar mother still thinks that her daughter is a little short, and she is afraid that there will be problems with her growth and development. She plans to take her daughter for a physical examination at the weekend.
But then again, is it really a developmental problem for a 5-year-old girl to be close to 1 10cm in height? Actually, not necessarily. After careful calculation, the height of sugar sugar is still within the normal development range. However, it does benefit the downstream level.
In fact, many times, parents think that the baby is short and slow, which is subjective. Especially compared with several well-developed children of the same age, this kind of emotion will be more sensitive.
But in fact, everyone is very different because of physical differences and individual growth and development trends. There is a range of height development of children of different ages, and it may not necessarily grow to a fixed height after being fixed. As long as it is within a reasonable height development range, there is no problem.
The following is a reference standard for the growth and development of children under 7 years old in China, which mothers can refer to. As long as your baby is in the corresponding age group and the height is within 2SD, there is no problem.
If the child's height is less than -2SD, it means that the baby's growth may be too slow, so parents should pay attention. If it is greater than +2SD, it is not necessarily a good thing, which means that the baby is growing too fast, and parents still need to pay attention. In both cases, parents need to take their baby to see a doctor.
In addition, there are some details that parents need to pay attention to. The average height of infants under 3 years old increased by 7cm, from 3 years old to early adolescence (1 1, 12 years old) increased by 4~5cm, and the average height of adolescence increased by 5.5~6cm. If the value is not up to standard, there may also be developmental problems. Parents should take their baby for medical consultation.
70% of a child's height depends on his parents' genetic inheritance, but it doesn't matter. 30% is an acquired factor that parents can control. If we grasp this 30% chance, the child will still have a chance to grow taller.
1) ensure that children get enough sleep.
Adequate sleep is very important for children's physical development. The baby will secrete growth hormone after falling asleep, which is an important hormone to promote the child's growth. The peak of this hormone secretion is just after the baby falls asleep. So, make sure your baby gets enough sleep. Regular work and rest is necessary.
2) ensure the nutrition that children eat.
In addition to sleep, diet is naturally the most important thing. A balanced and rich diet for children is the premise to ensure their healthy development. At the same time, it is also one of the important foundations to promote her height development.
You should pay attention to preparing food for children from complementary food. Try to achieve a balanced diet and nutrition, and follow the collocation method from less to more, from fine to coarse, and from one to many. This will make it easier for children to accept. It can also help your baby develop good eating habits step by step.
3) ensure that children exercise moderately.
After eating well and sleeping well, proper exercise every day is naturally necessary. Reasonable and appropriate exercise can effectively help children's bone growth, not only promote height development, but also strengthen bone density and physical fitness.
However, it should be noted that not all sports can help the baby grow up, so we must pay great attention to the choice of sports types. Basketball, badminton, cycling, running and hiking are recommended, but weightlifting, shot put and discus are not recommended.
4) Ensure that children have positive emotions.
Eva's mood will also have a great influence on her physical development. This is not an alarmist. If children live in an environment where parents have long-term quarrels, long-term depression and great mental stress, children are prone to "social psychological dwarfism". Over time, it will directly affect the height development of children.
So parents should also pay attention to creating a warm, harmonious and positive living environment for their children. Ensuring that children are in a positive emotional state is also good for height development.
Koi fish's mother is very talkative.
Every child is different as an individual, so parents don't need to compare with other children. Even babies of the same age will develop differently from person to person. Various development standards can only be used as reference, not absolute judgment.
Therefore, even if you think your child is shorter than other children, don't be nervous, as long as the baby's development is within the normal range.
