Baby Growth Chart & Percentile Calculator for Boys & Girls

Analyse Progress of your baby

Using our baby growth chart

When your baby is first born, you'll have several visits at your pediatrician's office to make sure your little one’s growth is on track.

A baby growth chart helps you and your pediatrician keep track of how your baby's growing. Consistent growth is a sign that your baby is healthy. Don't be concerned if your child doesn't fall right in the middle of the growth chart, though. There's a wide range of normal, and your baby's measurements now don't necessarily reflect what size they'll be as an adult.

Percentiles show how your child's weight, height, and head circumference compare to other children who are the same age and sex. For example, if your child's weight is in the 20th percentile, they weigh more than 20 percent of children their age and sex.

It's normal for some children to be in the 10th percentile for weight, while others are in the 90th percentile. The most important thing is that your baby is growing at a healthy and consistent rate, no matter what percentile they're in.

Baby weight

If you want to see how your baby is growing between doctor’s visits, here's how to get a fairly accurate weight at home:

Undress your baby completely (remove the diaper too) and step on a scale while you're holding your child. Record that weight.
Set your baby down and weigh yourself. Subtract your own weight from your combined weight with your baby and record that number.
This isn't as accurate as weighing your baby at the doctor's office, but it's a good estimate of how much your little one weighs.

Baby height

Before your baby can stand and walk on their own, height is often recorded as length – that is, how long your baby is from the crown of the head to the bottom of the heel while lying down.

Baby head circumference

Your baby's healthcare provider will measure head circumference for the first two years of your child’s life to make sure your baby's brain is growing at a healthy rate.
You can measure your baby's head circumference at home too, but it can be hard to do accurately.

Ideal Height, Weight & Head Circumference

The ideal height, weight, and head circumference of a babycan vary based on factors such as age, gender, and individual growth patterns.

Pediatricians often use growth charts to monitor a child's development. These charts provide percentiles that compare a child's measurements to those of a large sample of children.

Here are some general guidelines, but remember that individual variation is normal, and consulting with a healthcare professional is essential for personalized advice:

Baby weight

The average weight for boys at the age of 1 is around 21 to 27 pounds (9.5 to 12.2 kg), and for girls, it is around 19 to 25 pounds (8.6 to 11.3 kg).

Baby height

By the age of 1, the average length for boys is around 29 to 31 inches (74 to 79 cm), and for girls, it is around 28 to 30 inches (71 to 76 cm).

Baby head circumference

The average head circumference at the age of 1 is around 17 to 18.5 inches (43 to 47 cm).

Remember that these are general guidelines, and individualchildren may fall outside of these ranges while still being perfectly healthy. Regular check-ups with a pediatrician are crucial to monitor a child's growth and development and address any concerns that may arise.
