At what age do kids lose their pot belly? my 21 month old always sticks out but looks really big after eating. any concern?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
NONE AT THIS TIME: Infants and toddlers have unusual proportions; relatively large heads and protuberant stomach and the proportions assume a more adult likeness by age 3 to 5 years. Regular assessment of growth with your child's doctor is fundamental in the health maintenance of your child to allow for early intervention should abnormal patterns of growth be pinpointed; early intervention as it were
