With the development of modern technology, a mother can track the growth rate of her baby even at the moment when he is in her womb. A visit to the ultrasound room for future parents always ends with a protocol, which indicates the parameters of the baby's development for a given period of time. One of the key indicators is the growth of boys or girls, it, as well as other values \u200b\u200bobtained using ultrasound. Individual measurements are compared with averaged data. It is this method (comparison with approximate norms) that will be used as an assessment of the development of the baby during its bearing and subsequent growing up.
In this article we will look at how future men should develop. The table of height and weight of boys will clearly demonstrate what indicators are considered the norm for a particular age group, and we will also briefly talk about when you need to pay attention to a child who is too small or too large.
What isnormal?
In our country, quite recently, the norms for the development of children for various indicators have been revised. The Ministry of He alth decided to abandon the obsolete Soviet developments and arm themselves with modern data that are in line with global trends.
It is worth noting that WHO has approved standards for each individual region of the planet, they are based on anthropological and genetic studies of the population living in a particular territory. People of different nationalities, existing in different climatic conditions, cannot look the same, especially the height of boys and girls, their weight and development rates are also different.
Comparing your child with the parameters of other babies, you should pay attention to many factors (genetics, he alth, lifestyle, physical activity, nutrition).

As you can see, the height and weight of the boys given in the table can have a significant variation. In any case, each child develops purely individually, and in the event of a shortage in certain parameters at the same age, six months or a year later, the child can make a significant leap in physiological development or, conversely, stop his growth.
No trick against genes?
The appearance of a person is laid down at the genetic level even at the moment when the egg meets the sperm andfertilization takes place. It is then that it becomes clear what gender the baby will be, what eyes he will have, skin color, complexion. However, this does not mean that what was originally laid down by nature cannot be adjusted or will remain unchanged throughout life.
Yes, eyes and hair, skin tone can be changed through third-party intervention, but blue eyes will remain so until old age. The growth of boys, their weight and complexion are directly affected by the way of life, the conditions in which they grow and develop. Short parents may well have a son above average height, all the more so it is impossible to dismiss the fact that genes are transmitted through several generations, and not a single child can be an exact copy of their biological mom and dad. It can be unequivocally stated that it is easier for a person to worsen his appearance and state of he alth than to improve it.
When is abnormality bad?
If parents notice that their child is significantly behind their peers, or vice versa (boys' height, weight and general development often overtake the average) - this is a reason to seek medical advice.
Before looking for geneticists and the best luminaries of world medicine, it is enough to make an appointment with a family doctor or a local pediatrician. In the medical record of any baby whose he alth is being monitored by parents, there is data on the dynamics of his development, based on which a qualified doctor can make certain conclusions regarding growth ratesbaby.
Problems can be observed in the following cases:
- hormonal surges due to puberty;
- disturbances in the level of "growth hormone";
- developmental delays;
- difficulties associated with abnormal intrauterine development;
- genetic disorders.
Now you know how tall a boy should be at a certain age.
