Parents usually pay close attention to their babies' height and weight. Many parents like to measure their babies' height at home and even buy an electronic scale to measure their weight. Although parents often like to measure their babies' height and weight, their medical history is particularly familiar with the standards for a 1-year-old baby's height and weight. So, what is the standard height and weight for a 1-year-old baby?
For the specific height and weight standards of a 1-year-old baby, it is recommended to refer to the reference standards of the Ministry of Health. From this standard, the height and weight standards for a 1-year-old baby are mainly differentiated based on gender. The height standard for a 1-year-old male baby is around 68.6 centimeters to 85 centimeters, and the weight standard is around 7.21 kilograms to 14 kilograms.
The height standard for a 1-year-old female baby is between 67.2 centimeters and 83.4 centimeters, and the weight is between 6.87 kilograms and 13.15 kilograms. According to this reference standard, a 1-year-old male baby who is not 68 centimeters tall is considered relatively short. Of course, a 1-year-old male baby over 85 centimeters is considered taller.
If a 1-year-old female baby does not reach a height of 67 centimeters, she is considered relatively short. Once a 1-year-old female baby reaches or even exceeds 84 centimeters in height, it is considered too tall. Understanding the height and weight standards for a 1-year-old baby is mainly to help parents understand their baby's growth and development based on these standards, and to promptly detect any abnormal nutritional deficiencies in the baby.
