The height and weight graph of your child is something that every careful mother should pay attention to. The graph can be established from the birth of the baby, or when the child is 2 years old. First of all, here is a brief introduction of the graph: This is based on the data of the survey of children’s physical development in nine provinces/municipalities published in the 7th issue of the Chinese Journal of Pediatrics in 2009, in which the horizontal axis is age and the vertical axis is height and weight respectively. The average height is the 50th percentile, and the height between the 25th and 97th percentile is normal; between the 25th and 10th percentile is short, and parents need to pay attention to the annual growth rate of their children (under 2 years old >7cm/year, from 4.5 years old to the beginning of puberty 5-7cm, puberty >6cm/year); if between the 10th and 3rd percentile , parents should take their children to the hospital pediatric endocrinology to check the cause of short stature; if the height is below the 3rd percentile, they are already short, and then they need to go to the hospital in time for diagnosis and intervention treatment. So how do you draw your child’s own growth curve? It is best if you can create a graph at birth, but you can also start recording now, usually at 3-6 months, and draw a point on the corresponding horizontal and vertical axes, and after several records, it can be connected to a curve. If there are no special circumstances in your child’s growth process, he or she will follow this curve until the genetic height of the parents (i.e. adult lifetime height). If your child’s height is below the 3rd percentile, you should consult a pediatric endocrinologist at a larger hospital as soon as possible to avoid missing the best time for treatment. In conclusion, the principles of treatment for dwarfism are: the younger the child, the better the results; the earlier the treatment, the better the results.
