      Can a 2-yr-old toddler drink this peanut soup? Does anyone know if there are any issues?


      Tian Qi will have to wait until pri sch.

      I know it's a bit KS but she's already in bottom 15-20 percentile in height. Both parents are also short. Just hope she hits average height only šŸ™

      TIA
      2 yr old only ??
      i think u prob wanna to wait till yr child is older before deciding whether yr chid needs to grow taller or not.

      btw, some childen are allergic to peanuts.....be aware of that.

        Girls too? i.e should not engage in too much exercise before puberty

        Hmm, maybe. I think I remember seeing somewhere, when girls start ballet too early and develop the muscles, some of them are a bit short too. But I think need more statistic on that. šŸ˜„

        Er...I started ballet at 4 and danced into my 20s and now I'm 1.7m...there were several tall girls learning with me too! Too tall to be prima ballerina!

          Yes, peanut plant with roots and black chicken. A must have soup from my mum in law for any of her grandchildren around 13. So far so good. Even the girls are about 1.68m at least.


          Hi peggy,

          So that we can ask the veggie aunty in the market...

          Thanks!

          The chinese name is čŠ±ē”Ÿę ¹. Can also approach chinese medicine hall to order dried one too. I did that for my customers before.

                  cannot wait until older. I read somewhere that a little girl reaches half of adult height by the time she hits 2 year-old or something.

                  I make a beef dish once per week. It's paying off a bit. She is now 78cm or so. That'll mean ard 156cm.

                  thks for reminder. haven't bought peanut plant cos I keep forgetting. hv to give it a go.

                  My hope for her is just 30-40 percentile cos we're no giants.

                    Is this applicable to boys too? My kids' heights at 2 years old are:

                    Ds1 : 85cm (est. adult height 1.7m)
                    Dd : 86.5cm (1.73m)
                    Ds2 : already >90cm at 22 months (>1.8m :shock: )

                      as for me,i am more concern when they reach puberty,
                      i see boys and girls \"shoot up suddenly\" during their teens when exercise.

                      btw, u mentioned beef dish ......may i know what is that?? for growing tall ??

                        I'm curious too. Is it beef stew? Or some special formula/recipe to grow tall? šŸ˜‰ šŸ˜‰ I need it for my DD too. šŸ˜‰
