The height of the child along with both parents are taken into account. Mid parental Height would be calculated . This would be plotted on WHO charts to come to any final conclusion requiring treatment.
You must visit a pediatrician physically for a review.

She comes under average or slightly lower height... Go to your pediatrician and get vital D, multivitamin and iron medicines for her... That would help
