Child Care: Child's Physical and Neurological Growth Levels - How the child grows and develops
The growth of the baby's body is very easy to see. Mothers usually judge the health status of two children of the same age by looking at their physical growth and size. Every child's body and nerve or nerves have different rates of nutrition. A baby's weight at birth and then its nutritional supply and disease determine its physical and mental growth.
Baby's birth weight doubles at 5-6 months; Triples at 12 months and quadruples at 30 months. Therefore, differences in birth weight may cause differences in physical growth between two normal children. But every baby has the latent capacity to reach normal baby weight, so adequate care will help him gain adequate weight regardless of birth weight.
Average weight and height growth during the first year
Age (months) Weight gain (in months) Age (years) Height gain (in years)
1-2 700 gram 1 year 25 cm
3-4 600 gram 2 year 12 cm

7-8 400 gram 4 year 6 cm
9-10 300 gram 5 year 5 cm
11-12 200 gram
Weight gain usually increases by 2.5 kilograms in the second year and at least 2 kilograms every year thereafter.
Every conscious mother can understand if the child's physical and neurological nutrition is correct, if she follows what the child is supposed to do at what age.
