World's Smallest Man

My baby is now 2 ft 10" and is 30 lbs. Would that childs weight be considered normal with his condition or should it be considered underweight for his height? He does look awfully skinny (not healthy) to me.

Jade, your kid is fine. For growth charts, go to: http://www.cdc.gov/growthcharts/

Pick your child's sex and age, enter the weight and height and the chart will tell you where they fit, i.e. as a percentile. So if your child is in the 50th percentile, that means that they are bigger than 50% of children that age, and also smaller than 50%. At 65%, they are bigger than 65%, and smaller than 35%, etc. Normal range is 25-75%. Anything smaller may be a concern, but that will depend on other factors, anything bigger, the kid is just going to be a big kid!

If you were referring to the guy from Nepal, I don't think there is a normal weight for a 2 foot tall adult!

No, I know my child is fine he is definatly not overweight but definatly has more meat on his arms and legs than the 2 ft adult. Maybe it is just me but I would be concerned not only with too much weight on a small body as well as not enough weight. The way I look at it is this too much weight is hard on a little heart but not enough weight could possibly be more dangerous if a wee one becomes ill which usually means a little weight loss anyhow and then there is not much left to fight with.

Is it normal for a two foot tall adult to be that thin? That is all I meant. I realize he has a condition that made him that tiny to begin with does that effect weight also?
