Pediatric growth calculators for WHO and CDC references, BMI, growth change, corrected age, and family-height context.
Standalone pediatric growth calculators
Choose the child growth calculation you need.
Six independent calculators cover WHO baby growth, CDC child growth, BMI screening, two-date growth change, corrected-age timing, and family-height context. Choose the workflow that matches the question and measurements you have.
Each calculator works on its own in this browser. No account, onboarding, or saved child health record is required. Results are transparent reference information—not diagnoses, treatment recommendations, or predictions.
Illustrative workflow only—no child values or results are shown here.
For a current growth percentile, start with age
The two growth-reference calculators keep one dated measurement set together and return only the WHO or CDC results supported by the measurements entered. Missing measurements are not invented.
Birth to before age 2
Baby Growth Percentile Calculator
Enter weight, lying-down recumbent length, head circumference, or any combination. Weight plus length also produces weight-for-length; age is not the weight-for-length chart axis.
Have ready: birth date, measurement date, WHO sex chart, and the measurements you have
Enter standing height, weight, or both. The calculator returns height-for-age and/or weight-for-age; entering both also adds concise BMI-for-age context.
Have ready: birth date, measurement date, CDC sex chart, and standing height, weight, or both
Use dated infant weight, recumbent length, and head-circumference records.
2nd birthday
Age 2 through 19
CDC child growth references
Use dated standing height and weight records; both together also support BMI-for-age.
The reference and measurement method change at age 2. See the methodology for the exact boundary and measurement rules.
Different inputs · different calculation
Four independent calculators answer different growth questions
These are not smaller versions of the Baby or Child Growth calculators. Each starts from a different input set, produces a different output, and has its own interpretation boundary.
Kids and teen BMI
Use this when:
BMI screening is the main question.
Have ready:
standing height and weight from the same date
You get:
BMI, BMI-for-age percentile, category, and method context
The baby growth-reference workflow uses WHO Child Growth Standards through the day before the second birthday. The child growth-reference workflow uses CDC growth references from the second birthday through the day before age 20. Other calculators use their separately documented arithmetic or clinical-method references. The site does not silently substitute corrected age, mix standing height with recumbent length, or turn one point into a trend.
Understand the result, not just the number
Baby Growth Percentiles — how WHO weight, length, weight-for-length, and head-circumference indicators differ.
Result pages distinguish what you entered, what the calculator derived, which published reference or method was used, whether a technical measurement-review flag appeared, and which dataset and calculation version produced the result. Technical checks are not diagnoses, and source permission does not imply endorsement.
