Growth & Development
Written on 19 May 2021
Your toddler's growth chart will show you what range for height, weight and head circumference your daughter should be in at her age.
After your daughter turns two, she will be measured standing up. When she's standing, her spine will be squashed a little. So in the beginning, her height might be slightly less than her length was when she was measured lying down.
However her height and length will be on the same percentile, and your toddler is likely to continue to grow on this same percentile curve.
To understand more about what growth charts and percentiles mean and how they are used, please see our article on growth charts: understanding the results.
This chart gives the measurement ranges between the 3rd and 97th percentile of the WHO growth standards for girls between 24 and 36 months. Checking that your child fits into this range can reassure you that she is within the normal range of height, weight and head circumference measurements for her age.
But to track whether your daughter is growing adequately over time, you will need to use a chart that shows her growth curve and percentile.
