Question

Is it normal for a nine-month-old baby to be 73 centimeters tall? The baby’s height and weight growth was normal from birth to six months, but there has been no increase in height or weight since then. The baby eats well and is in good spirits. No treatment has been received previously. I want to know what the cause might be.

Answer

A nine-month-old baby being 73 centimeters tall is normal, as a one-year-old baby’s height is only 75 centimeters. You mentioned that there has been almost no increase in height or weight since six months, which might not be very noticeable because the baby grew fastest in the first three months, and then the growth rate slowed down. This is the suggestion for the question “Is a nine-month-old baby’s height of 73 centimeters normal.” I hope this helps, and wish you health!
