Normal height of baby

Normal height of baby

The baby's health is an issue that everyone is very concerned about. The baby's height and weight also reflect the baby's health status to a certain extent. In fact, the increase in height during infancy can reflect how tall the baby will be when he grows up. If the baby does not grow within the normal range during infancy, parents can take timely measures such as supplementing nutrition or increasing exercise. So how tall does a baby have to be to be considered within the standard range? Parents who want to know, please take a look at what the editor has prepared for you.

The table below shows the height range for babies aged 0 to 3 years old.

The standard growth pattern of baby's height: the average height of a full-term baby is 50 cm. It increases by about 25 cm in the first year after birth, so it is about 75 cm at one year old. Thereafter, it increases by an average of about 5 cm each year. Therefore, the height (cm) of a child aged 2 to 12 years old = age × 5 + 75 (cm). Anyone whose height exceeds the standard by 10% or is less than 10% is considered abnormal.

The above is the normal height standard for babies given by the editor. Mothers can check it to know whether their babies are within the normal range, and they can provide nutrition and exercise for their babies in time. I hope the content I provide can be helpful to everyone to some extent. In fact, parents don’t need to worry too much if the baby’s height is not within the normal range. After all, the baby’s height and weight will increase rapidly during puberty.
