At 15 months, height growth depends largely on genetics and overall health, but supportive factors include:
- Balanced nutrition: meals with protein (eggs, yogurt, meat/chicken), calcium (dairy products), and vitamin D (400 IU daily, per health ministry guidelines).
- Adequate sleep: growth hormone is released during deep nighttime sleep; aim for 11-14 total hours (night + daytime) for a 15-month-old.
- Plenty of physical activity: walking, climbing, pushing-pulling activities support bone and muscle development.
Track height monthly at the same time of day, marking height on a wall or getting measurements at a health clinic. If you notice significant slowing in growth (crossing percentile lines or less than 1 cm monthly gain), consult your pediatrician.
