Parents and friends are more concerned about their babies' height and weight because it is the most intuitive way to understand their physical development. Many parents and friends have found that babies of similar ages have significant differences in height and weight. So, what are the height and weight standards for babies aged 2 to 3? What should I do if my baby's height and weight are not up to standard between the ages of 2 and 3?
1. Height and weight of 2-year-old baby
Boy: Height 78.3-99.5cm, weight 9.06-17.54kg, head circumference 44.6cm-52.5cm.
Girl: Height 77.3-98.0cm, weight 8.70-16.77kg, head circumference 43.6cm-51.4cm.
At the age of 2, the growth rate of the baby's limbs accelerates and their bones grow rapidly. Now they can walk independently and their range of motion has expanded significantly. It is the most vigorous time for the baby's growth and development, so remember to give them sufficient nutrition.
2. 3-year-old baby's height and weight
Boy: Height 86.3-109.4cm; Weight: 10.61-20.64kg; Head circumference is 45.7-53.5cm.
Girl: Height 85.4-108.1cm; Weight: 10.23-20.10kg; Head circumference is 44.8-52.6cm.
By the age of 3, the baby's brain weight has approached the range of adult brain weight, and the development rate slows down thereafter. The baby is now able to sleep alone and has become accustomed to sleeping, going to the bathroom, brushing teeth, and other daily routines. They are now able to take care of themselves and can start kindergarten.
3. Solution for babies aged 2 to 3 who do not meet height and weight standards
The baby's height and weight not meeting the standard may be caused by picky eating habits and insufficient nutritional supplementation. You should pay attention to letting the baby eat more, eat less snacks, and eat three meals a day on time.
The height of a child is related to many factors, such as the height of the parents, especially the height of the mother. At the same time, some children grow early and some grow late. There is no need to worry too much, enough exercise, sufficient sunlight, and most importantly, good sleep.
The examination of trace elements sometimes has errors. Whether a child is deficient in calcium mainly depends on their symptoms and signs. If there are no symptoms or signs, a two-year-old child may not need to supplement calcium. The child's height is below the normal range, and they usually eat less. If the child is in good spirits, don't worry. Adjust the child's life, have a reasonable nutrition, mix meat and vegetables, sleep well at night, and observe the child's growth rate. The child is still young and has a chance to grow.
