Check Ups

Adam and Naomi had their annual checkups yesterday. Clean bills of health and growth.

Here are the stats* for Adam at 4 years, 2 months:

. your child is 44 pounds, and that is
. at the 91st percentile for weight.

. your child is 44 inches, and that is
. at the 97th percentile for height.

and for Naomi at 24 months:

. your child is 24 pounds, and that is
. at the 15th percentile for weight.

. your child is 34.5 inches, and that is
. at the 65th percentile for height.

That second percentile doesn't ring true to me, mainly because our paed quoted 75th percentile to me and, I suppose, partly because her narrowness makes her seem so much taller.

Did you mean to say that Adam's stats are for 4 years and 2 months?
