I’m five-foot-zero and would be a hazard to a fellow of six-foot-two. And I’d always be looking into his nostrils instead of his eyes.
Then there’s the issue of adjusting the car seats...
And the size of the babies.

my niece is tall, married and had children with a pretty short guy...they divorced because not all short guys are good people....but they produced very tall boys......

I’m six five

Rib is your height

It works if you want it to

Babies size is determined by moms hips more than anything

All ours were six pounds or less to suit her small pelvis

Usually Gods plan works that way

When it doesn’t then C section

My wife is 4’10” and I am 6’4”

Been happily married for 8 years

It also helps that the car has automatic seat settings so it adjusts depending on who is driving it.

I’m 5’-1” and Beau is 6’-3”

You’re right about the nostril gazing, but when we’re getting down to business, the horizontal eye-gazing works out just fine. ;)

We’re well past the age of babies, but if I survived the birth, it would be one d@mn adorable kid! :)

I'm 5'2" and, as a young woman, preferred men just a little bit taller than I was. But, those shorter guys tended to prefer taller girls, and I was asked out by tall men (6' and over). Bottom line: Don't rule out someone based on height.

BTW, the kids tend to be a little bit taller than halfway between your two heights. Two of my sons are not happy about that, but, oh, well, guys, I have no control over my genes. lol

"I’m five-foot-zero and would be a hazard to a fellow of six-foot-two."

My sister is 5' and her husband is 6'6" - talk about "Mutt and Jeff" (for the oldsters - Ha!). She had a baby who was 9 lbs 6oz when born - almost 10 lbs. She's doing fine (tho she has to jump up to put her arms around her husband's neck to hug him), and her son is now about 30 yrs old. So, it can be done. :-)!!

Don’t feel bad, I’m 4’10”. I used to wish that I were around six feet, but now I’ve learned to enjoy being petite. Except when I’m grocery shopping and everything I need is on the top shelf.

I’ve always preferred shorter men because I would look ridiculous with a tall man, although I’ve dated both.

My mom is the same height as you and my father was 6’2. My older sister is 5’9, lol.
