For best results, measure your child's height while they're standing upright with their back against a wall, and weigh them while they're wearing lightweight clothing.

Interpreting the Results

The growth chart calculator provides several key metrics to help you understand your child's development:

Percentile Rank: Shows where your child's growth falls compared to other children of the same age and gender
Height-for-Age: Compares your child's height to the average for their age
Weight-for-Age: Compares your child's weight to the average for their age
BMI-for-Age: Assesses your child's body mass index relative to their age

Percentiles are divided into categories:

Below 5th percentile: Considered below average growth
5th-85th percentile: Within the normal range
Above 85th percentile: Considered above average growth

Percentile = (Number of children with lower measurements / Total number of children) × 100
