Child’s Growth Chart Calculator


You might be wondering how your child’s growth compares to other children her age. To find out, use the following growth chart calculator for newborns to 3-year-olds.

First you’ll need to measure your child’s height, weight, and head circumference, and then enter them into the boxes below.

About percentiles: The most commonly used clinical indicator, percentiles rank the position of an individual by indicating what percent of the reference population the individual would equal or exceed. For example, on the weight-for-age growth charts, a 2-year-old boy whose weight is at the 30th percentile, weighs the same or more than 30 percent of the reference population of 2-year-old boys, and weighs less than 70 percent of the 2-year-old boys in the reference population.

Please enter the age in months of your child and see the milestones for their age. Please note that during the first three years developmental milestones vary widely from child to child. Your toddler will develop at their own pace.
 

Please enter your baby's or toddler's age in months:

Months

Was your child born prematurely?   no   yes

Encouragement + An Assist = Success

Nine days past her due date, Sara Howe was awakened at 3:00AM when her water broke. Thrilled that the long wait was finally over, Sara and her husband David packed up and headed to Southwest Washington Medical Center. By 5:00AM they were comfortably settled into one of Southwest’s Labor Delivery Recovery and Postpartum rooms, ready for action. But four hours later, Sara contractions had still not progressed so her midwife started her on Pitocin. Soon the contractions kicked in and Sara was well on her way.

At around eight o’clock the next morning, it was time for Sara to start pushing. So she pushed. And she pushed, and she pushed, and she pushed. "The first few hours of pushing went by without me realizing the time," remarked Sara. "But around the fourth hour I started to wonder if I was still making progress. That is when the encouragement of my midwife, husband and the Southwest nursing staff kept me going. It was like I had my own cheering section."

Unfortunately, even with all the support and encouragement, Sara’s labor was not progressing because her baby’s head was tilted in the birth canal. Neither Sara or her midwife wanted her to have a Cesarean section after all that work, so her midwife suggested an assisted delivery. Read more >
