Just curious he long you think 5" torso growing room will last a 15 month old?

She is just now starting to outgrow Carter's 12 month, Gerber 18 month onesies...I'm wondering how long 6" above the head will last...

Um. A really long time? The 50th percentile 15 month old will grow about 10 inches by the time she is 4.5. So if you figure half that growth is legs and half is torso (in reality it is probably going to be more legs than torso...), then I'd say somewhere around age 4.5.

If she's just now outgrowing Carter's 12 month onesies, then she is probably pretty short, so her growth might be slower than the average. I wouldn't be surprised if she makes it to age 5.

She is actually very tall but short torso and smallish head. Glad to hear I am good on time in the new BLVD I have coming to me :)

Her shoulders are currently just even with the second slots of her CCO.

Thanks so much for the reply. It is so hard to judge growth room.
