normal weight and height for infants

long. The doctor said she is 25% for weight and 90% for height/length... I think I might have a scientist that could have been a model on my hands... tall and skinny...

Both her weight and height are below the 5th percentile for her age. Was she born premature or the females in the family petite? She is under the normal weight for her age, however, if she has been gaining weight at a steady rate (even if it has been slow) she maybe just small in stature. If not, then she would be underweight. Soy base formula is given to infants so she can have soy milk, soy yogurt, soy ice cream.

At 13, most teenagers are well into puberty and may be in the middle of or about to embark on growth spurts. Their height and weight may go through many changes in their teen years. According to the Centers for Disease Control, the average height for a 13-year-old girl is 5'1 3/4". Girls' normal height can range from 4'11 1/4" at the 10th percentile to 5' 5 3/4" at the 90th percentile.

My sons always hungry lol he's not fat though just chubby cheeks and isn't gaining weight rapidly

My son and daughter were really tiny at birth and jumped in their weight and height just because they were healthy! I was told to feed my kids cereal at 2 1/2 months because of how many times a day they were breastfeeding! It's as soon as they can hold their head up! Same with juice! You can feed it to them in a bottle under 6 months, but half water half juice is the way to go! And plain water under 6 months old, is not a good thing to give them!

My sons car seat holds from 5-80lbs its convertable car seat I got for 95$ att sams club. I love it and won't have to buy a new car seat for him ever again. it'll follow him until he doesn't need a seat anymore. Which is roughly around 7 it depends on your childs weight and height though.

For the first part of his life he was around the 90th percentile for both his height and weight and around 7 months he reached his peak of 20 lbs and has now dropped to the 50th percentile for his height and the 10th (or less) for his weight. Recently he had a bout of RSV where he was hospitalized for two nights and during the intake at the ER, (while his fever was 39.9 C), I saw his HR recorded at 179 and resp rate was 60.

Im 13 and I m very active I dont eat the greatest and I weight 135 is that normal?

ll just say 20lbs) and she was 26 3/4 inches long. 95% in weight and 80% for height!! DH and I are both short 5'8 and 5'3 and we are little, so we are not sure where the height and weight are coming from, lol!!

Well I think they are pretty much in the same percentile although her head size is in the 60th percentile lol

He measured 22 3/4 at his 2 month well baby check up. He will be 6 feet when becomes older and I think that's going to be his max height. Both me and my husband have acquired myopia(mine is - 7nd I got it when I'm 10 years old and my husband's is -2 and he got in his early 20's). His weight at 3 and a half months is 12 pounds and he is born at 36 weeks. Cna his myopia be treated with Lasik or any other refractive surgery when he gets older(may be when becomes 20 years old)?

ve gained 24lbs and the usual recommended weight gain range is 25-30lbs Gaining more weight and at a faster rate can cause complications for both you and baby. You risk getting diabetes, and having more complications during delivery.

Vitamin D3 is a good one to add for most thyroid issues. Magnesium and a good probiotic and fish oil is also a good idea for many. We take all suppliments at night. What thyroid medication are you on and how do you feel? Does your doctor track your freet3 and freet4 level as these are best to moniter and corrolate best with hypothyroid symptoms. Would love to chat with you and compair notes as it is not common to find others who were born without a thyroid gland.

Just out of curiosity...this is a babies/kids thread. I know there's growth charts, and weight charts but how old is/are your child(ren) and what's their height and weight? Just curious of the ranges of children by age...actually I really just want to know if Elijah towers over anyone else's kid, lol...he's so much taller than all the babies in our play group...

Hi, I am an hep b patient diagnosed in 2003. I am taking baraclude 0.5mg for more than 5 years. My new blood test and ultrasound shows that i have fatty and enlarged liver. My enlarged liver is now 4cm big. ALT is 48( normal range 0-44). My doctor told me not to worry about. He told me to loose weight and eat more green vegetables and fruit. My weight is 204lb and height is 5'8". Sometimes i have upper back pain overall i am pretty healthy.

A normal weight can be anywhere from 92 pounds to 123 pounds for the height of 4'11" according to the BMI for that height.

I would agree with you regarding the amount and suggest you ask the doctor why that level ...I copied this out for you Children's Dosage of Vitamin D Photo Credit Children image by My 3 kids from Fotolia.com In the United States, approximately 70 percent of children aren't getting enough vitamin D, according to a study published by Dr. Juhi Kumar and colleagues in the August 2009 issue of "Pediatrics.

You use the formula BMI = mass/height squared. For you to be within normal range your BMI should be within 18 and 25. If less you are underweight, if higher you are overweight or heading to obese.

I am male and 18 years old ,my height is 165 cm and weight is 48 kg.I want get more height.how can i get more height?

Our daughter's height has been slowly dropping on her growth chart. Over the period of 2 years, she has gone from 95% down to 10%. The progression has been this: Birth: 95% 3 months: 50% 6 months: 45% 12 months: 25% 20 months: 15% 2 years: 10% She had serious health issues when born (two heart defects, heart failure, failure to thrive with weight) but these have all been resolved for over a year.

Not at all!! He can't tell from fundal height, babys position, placenta, fluids can cause that to be off.. my previous doctor was "never wrong" guess babies weight from fundal height and said my son was going to be about 6lbs, he was almost 9.. so don't worry about that at all!

First of all, I apologize if this seems like a silly question - my oldest son (now 4 years old) didn't have yogurt until he was well over a year old. I've been thinking about how to add variety (and extra good fats) to my younger son (8 months nearly 9 months old)'s diet due to the fact that he's a bit on the small side and slow to gain weight - but healthy - and I thought that maybe I could start giving him a bit of yogurt now and then.
