Question

what is the difference between the pattern of increase in the height of boys and girls(chart and grafh)

Answer 1

, the baby’s birth weight is the starting point for growth. Whatever be the birth weight of a baby, the growth rate in all the babies is approximately the same. The overall growth pattern depends on the proper food and adequate care of the baby.

Getting taller is also included in the growth pattern of the baby. Weight gain is not the only way to assess a baby’s growth. Whatever be the baby’s length at birth, approximately 2 cm (3/4”) will be gained each month or just over 5 cm (2”) in 3 months.

There is a consistent relationship of weight & height in the normal growth pattern of the child.
