My older kids were 95th in height and 5-10 in weight-no problem. As long as they are on the charts, they are in normal range.

Don't worry too much, especially if either you or your husband has those kinds of proportions. My baby is 80th percentile height and 20th in weight- not surprising at all, given my string-bean of a husband.

Nah, don't worry about percentiles. My kids are always short and fat on the chart but look average in person.
