❓ Frequently asked questions
What data is this?
Median height (P50) from the WHO / international child growth reference, in centimetres.
Why only the median?
Full percentiles need professional growth charts; here we show the median with a rough +/-3 cm band for a quick check.
Can it replace a check-up?
No. Height is influenced by many factors; see a doctor if you have concerns.

About this tool
Parents, you know the drill — the growth-chart app at the clinic, then the "is this normal?" spiral on the walk home.
This chart plots your child's height against standard percentiles so you can see the trend over time, not just today's number.
Log a few measurements and watch the curve. Useful before a check-up, or just to stop guessing.
It runs on your device; the numbers you enter aren't uploaded.
One honest note: this is a calculator, not medical advice. Real concerns go to your pediatrician. (We keep no data; anonymous analytics only — privacy policy.)
Tip: measure at the same time of day; kids are taller in the morning. That's the whole tool — hope it helps.
