Understanding Percentiles
A percentile shows the percentage of babies who measure less than your baby. For example, if your baby is in the 70th percentile for weight, it means 70% of babies weigh less and 30% weigh more at the same age.

Typical Growth Patterns
Babies typically double their birth weight by 5-6 months and triple it by 12 months. Height increases by about 50% in the first year. Consistent growth along a percentile curve is more important than the specific percentile number.
