Interpreting the Results

The calculator will display your baby's weight compared to WHO growth standards. Here's what the different percentiles mean:

5th percentile: Below this line indicates your baby is underweight
50th percentile (median): Your baby's weight falls within normal range
95th percentile: Above this line suggests your baby is overweight

If your baby's weight consistently falls outside the normal range, consult with your pediatrician to determine if further evaluation is needed.

Understanding Growth Charts

Head circumference-for-age

Formula used: The calculator uses WHO growth standards which are based on extensive medical research and data from healthy infants worldwide.

Regular monitoring with growth charts helps identify potential issues early and ensures your baby is developing normally.
