Can long arm indicate that the child is going to be tall?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Genetics.: Genetics determine height. Best guesstimate is to take mom's height in inches and dad's height in inches. Add them together. Add 5 if male and subtract 5 if a female.Then divide by two...And that is an estimation of adult height (+/- 2 inches)_.
