Question
My daughter is 36 months old and 79 cm tall. Someone told me that my daughter is already 88 cm tall at one month older than us. What are the development indicators for a 36-month-old baby?
Answer
At 36 months, your child is doing well; there’s no need to worry. Just ensure proper nutrition. Height is also related to genetics; some children grow earlier, while others later. Gradually increase your child’s food intake, diversify their diet, and take them outdoors on sunny days for vitamin D. Check for trace elements and supplement if there’s a deficiency. Your child’s condition may be related to a lack of trace elements, poor daily nutrition, or indigestion. No severe diseases are considered, so there’s no need to worry excessively. Routine pediatric blood tests and trace element tests are recommended.
