Developmental milestones are some of the most eagerly anticipated details by parents. Everyone wants reassurance that their children are growing normally. And although we have guidelines, everyone grows at different rates. What’s not in question is the wondrous first year where, on average, an infant’s weight triples and his or her height increases by almost a foot. Growth spurts also occur in the second decade of life when puberty is identified by pubic and underarm hair and maturing sex organs. The best ways to ensure that kids develop to the fullest of their genetic ability is to make sure they get proper nutrition and develop sound sleeping habits. If you are concerned about your child’s growth and development, consult your pediatrician. Your child’s doctor may refer you to a pediatric specialist if there appears to be a problem.
