FAQ

How is the percentile calculated?

Weight is compared to interpolated WHO reference median and spread values for the entered age and sex, converted to a percentile using a standard normal distribution approximation.

Is this the same as my pediatrician's chart?

No. This is a simplified approximation using a small set of reference points, not the full official WHO or CDC growth chart curves.

Should I make decisions based on this number?

No. This is a rough estimate only, not medical advice. Always use official WHO/CDC growth charts and talk with your pediatrician about your baby's growth.
