Tan Huiyuan, chief physician of the third hospital affiliated to Guangzhou Medical University, said that observing the growth and development of children must first judge whether the child's height is within the normal range. Generally, the normal full moon newborn is about 50 cm in length. The first year after birth will grow the fastest, and the length can increase by 25-30 cm, that is, a 1-year-old child can reach 75-80 cm in length. The second year of birth increased by 10-12 cm. After the age of 2, it will increase by 5-7 cm each year before the youth development period (that is, the girl is 10 years old, and the boy is 12 years old). If the height increases below 5 cm per year, it means that the growth rate is abnormal.

Tan Huiyuan introduced that the growth of youth development can accelerate again. Girls increased an average of 8-9 cm per year. The height of the entire adolescence can increase by 20-25 cm: a boy's average annual increase of 9-10 cm, and the height of the entire adolescence can increase by 25-30 cm. Essence If parents find that their child's height growth does not match the laws, they should pay attention and go to the hospital to seek medical treatment in time to find the cause.
