Height standard for 18-month-old baby

When many parents with children get together, what they like to discuss most is their children. They care about their baby's height, temper, eating habits, etc. Among them, the baby's height and weight are the most frequently raised topics. Parents will be very pleased if some babies are a little taller, but parents of babies who are a little shorter will worry whether their babies are underdeveloped. Next, let's discuss the height standard for eighteen-month-old babies.

The height of the child needs to be individualized. At 18 months old, the average weight of male babies is 11.5 kg, with a minimum of 9.1 kg and a maximum of 13.9 kg, both within the normal range; the average height is 82.4 cm, with a minimum of 76.3 cm and a maximum of 88.5 cm, both within the normal range.

The average weight of the baby is 10.8 kg, the lowest is 8.5 kg, and the highest is 13.1 kg, which is within the normal range; the average height is 80.9 cm, the lowest is 74.8 cm, and the highest is 87.1 cm, both of which are within the normal range.

What I just said is the general situation. We also need to consider the height of parents and grandparents, that is, the issue of genetic factors. If the family members are taller than ordinary people, the baby will also be taller than babies of the same age, and vice versa. It is only when the child is around three years old that we can know whether it is affected by genetic factors. Another situation is that the child's current height does not meet the standard, which does not mean that the child will not grow taller when he grows up. Some children are of the type with physical retardation, and it is common that their height may suddenly increase rapidly during a period of time when no attention is paid.

Through the above discussion on the height standard for eighteen-month-old babies, we should understand that the normal range of a baby's height is relatively wide. If the difference is not much, there is no need to worry. If you take good care of your child's diet, sleep and exercise, your child will be healthy. Height is related to many aspects, and as long as the child is healthy, it is the greatest comfort to the parents.
