Referring to the body mass index, the baby is fat and thin!
When it comes to the ideal weight, the commonly used reference index is body mass index (BMI). BMI Index Algorithm: Weight (kg) ∕ Height? (meter? )
If the weight percentile exceeds 97, the baby will be healthy and bright red!
According to the chart about children in the new edition of Children's Health Handbook issued by the Ministry of Health, generally speaking, the percentile of baby's weight is less than 50 as the standard average, less than 3 as underweight, and more than 97 as overweight. In fact, more than 85 is a warning. However, the length of the baby must also be taken into account. If the weight percentile falls within the range of 90 to 97, but the head circumference and height fall below 50, then the baby is relatively overweight.
