Why am i actually taller in the morning

[e1488shciozl]

Did this for a 5 days. I wake up, measure my height, and then measure it again in 6-8 hours. Everyday I am taller 2-2.5cm cm (0.8-1 inches) in the morning than normally. How does that work? I double check and take the measurements properly

your spine compresses throughout the day
