Your baby boy just turned 2. Happy Birthday. You must be wondering where has the time elapsed. It seems like it was just yesterday he was born as a tiny baby and today he is 2 years old already. He must be getting vocal, and learning new words every day. Trying to show his emotions like anger, joy, love, and possessiveness. He must also be testing your parental limits. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
The importance of monitoring a child\u2019s growth and development is to find out whether there are any developmental delays in the child. When we are regularly monitoring a child\u2019s growth and development we are in a better position to identify any issues at an early stage. By tracking height, weight, head circumference, and other age-related milestones, we can very easily detect abnormalities. Help could be extended to the child in case of any delays, ensuring optimal growth and development.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Most Pediatricians across the world refer to the average weight which is based on growth standards and percentiles established by World Health Organization (WHO) and The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC). The standards provide a benchmark against which a child\u2019s weight can be compared. A child whose weight falls within the range is generally considered healthy. <\/p>\n\n\n
