📘 About the Weight Gain

Babies usually grow along a percentile line. Enter the birth weight, today's weight and the date of birth to see the weight your baby would be on the same percentile as at birth, the average gain per day, and whether the percentile has changed.

Dropping across two major percentile lines is a reason to see your doctor, but small changes in the first 2–3 months are common as babies settle onto their own curve.

My baby moved down a percentile — is it a problem?

Not usually if feeding well and growing steadily; crossing two lines downward needs a check-up.
