Question

My baby is only three months old, and their weight has been increasing almost daily, by a couple of ounces each time. However, their height hasn’t increased at all. Isn’t it said that infants in the first few months are not affected by intergenerational inheritance?

Answer

A normal newborn usually weighs around 3 kilograms at birth, with a monthly growth of 0.7 kilograms in the first six months and 0.5 kilograms per month in the following year. Additionally, each baby’s growth and development is different. At birth, the height is generally about 50 centimeters, with a monthly growth of 2.5 centimeters in the first six months and 1.5 centimeters per month in the subsequent year. These are suggestions for the question ‘Why isn’t my baby growing at three months old,’ hoping it will be helpful to you. Wishing you health!
