● The growth and development monitoring map is divided into two types: boys and girls.
● The straight line at the bottom of the growth and development monitoring chart represents the age of the child, and each cell represents one month. The vertical line next to it represents the child's weight.
When weighing the child, find the age at the bottom, find the weight in the vertical bar next to it, and then draw a small point at the intersection of the two.
● Weigh the child several times and connect several black spots into a line, which is the growth curve of the child.
There are two curves on the growth monitoring chart as reference lines, and the range between them represents the healthy growth of children, which is called.
Comparing the child's growth curve with the reference curve, we can know the situation of the child's weight increasing with age: curve name, curve characteristics, growth status, possible reasons, curve A, and the baby's growth curve are rising and their amplitude is consistent with the reference curve, that is, they grow well on the "healthy road", indicating that the amount of feeding is sufficient and no complementary food is added.
The growth curve of a baby is flat or declining.
Weaning food with poor growth starts too late and grows slowly after six months.
The baby's growth curve is rising, but the amplitude is smaller than the reference curve, and the growth is not good. Curve c is above the "healthy road"
Excessive weight gain
The D curve of milk or complementary food overfeeding is below the "healthy road", and the baby's growth curve is flat.
The baby doesn't grow well.
Maybe he was ill, or he didn't eat enough food. If the child is breast-fed, it may be because the breast milk is not enough.
If stunted growth is found, you can consult a doctor in a local medical and health care unit and get health care guidance.
