    I get it, my toddler is big. Yeah he's bigger than your 4 years old and he's younger than 3 but can you maybe realize we hear that constantly and he's going to understand it very soon that people are othering him

      What percentile are they? My 6 month old was sitting at 75th for all measurements from birth, but in the past couple of months has shot up to 94th. Is there a certain point where you found other people’s comments started having a judgemental tone?

        100+% for height and weight.

        It's not judgemental perse but it's something they're going to have to deal with and I'm worried they'll start to feel judged

          Can understand how your kid might be self conscious in the future about their size if people are commenting on it all the time.

          Would team and individual sport help them with confidence in their body, and non sporting hobbies more academic hobbies as well to say they're more than just their body?
